 | | Qty=1Size=750 ml, ST[97+]"The 2013 Monte Bello Historic Vines is much more tannic and forbidding than the Steep Terraces. Beams of tannin and intense, mineral/savory aromatics are the key signatures. A wine of structure and tannin, the Historic Vines is a wine for patient readers. It won't be ready to drink anytime soon, that much is obvious. Readers who can find a bottle or two should not hesitate, as it is fabulous. Sadly, there are just six barrels (about 150 cases) to go around. A host of blue/purplish fruits, dark spice, lavender and graphite saturate the deep, resonant finish." - Antonio Galloni, Vinous (June 2016) |
