Item Description
Enjoy the big bold red wines from this historic vineyard. Ever since bursting onto the international wine scene by beating the French in the 1976 tasting, Montelena has become the standard bearer for Napa Valley. This lot combines a ready-to-drink bottle of Montelena's flagship estate Cabernet Sauvignon (2004 vintage) and a rare vertical of Zinfandels (1999 and 2009).
The 1999 bottle is labeled "St. Vincent." While this is fitting homage to the patron saint of winemakers - as well as our own Vinny - the story goes all the way back to Italy and the curious history of Zinfandel. Prior to UC David proving that the Italian Primitivo and the American Zinfandel were genetic twins, Montelena bottled their Primitivo/Sangiovese blend as "St. Vincent." A very fitting auction lot to honor the link between American and Italian wine culture, and our very own "St. Vincent."
Included in this package...
2004 Chateau Montelena Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
2009 Chateau Montelena Zinfandel
1999 Chateau Montelena St. Vincent
