Chateau Montelena Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 1987
Napa Valley
"I can think of only three wineries that were making fabulous Cabernet Sauvignons in 1973 that have continued to produce great wines, with no qualitative slumps through 1995--Caymus Vineyard, Ridge, and Château Montelena. Because Château Montelena is "old" by California standards, it is easy to overlook the extraordinary wines produced by Jim Barrett and his son, Bo. Remarkably, there is not a bad vintage of Château Montelena to be found...For that reason, an invitation to a vertical tasting of Château Montelena's estate Cabernet is one of the most exciting tickets in town." Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Issue 102, 12/23/95
