Description

Creative freedom lies at the core of Montelena. Its pervasive, ubiquitous, but at the same time, subtle and ostensibly paradoxical to those who dont know us. At first glance it would seem to conflict with our classic and historic legacy, when in reality, it propels our status year after year and more importantly, inspires us. In no place do we experience that more than in our Estate Cabernet. While certainly Le Gran Vin of the property, an extension of decades of heritage, tradition and recognition, its exceptionally situated as the nexus of the past and future. As much as 40 vintages (1978-2017) of Estate Cabernet can serve as indisputable validation, its the foundation theyve formed that is most impressive, galvanizing the creativity and freedom to explore whats to come.
