Thursday, March 26, 2020 - Initially shows a young grapey flavor in this surprising 15 year old Monte Bello. Elegant balance, that Monte Bello earthy beet flavor, plums and cherries, along with supple yet spicy tannins. A wonderfully saturated wine that will cellar for at least another decade. Decanted two hours. With the initial grapey flavor and tannins, this clearly has a long life ahead. Drink now or hold. Just lovely.
