The 2008 Montenero is gorgeous in this vintage. Juicy dark berries, flowers and mint are some of the many nuances that emerge over time. The 2008 is an impeccable, polished wine endowed with gorgeous textural finesse and lovely overall balance. Floral notes reapper on the finish, adding lift and freshness. Montenero is 60% Nero d’Avola, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Merlot, a blend that works beautifully. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2016.
