2005 Vino di Vicino, Montebello Road

367 Cases Produced

GOLD MEDAL – California State Fair (Best of Class)
SILVER MEDAL –
El Dorado County Fair


A classic representation of the local terroir, Vino di Vicino translates from Italian to Wine of the Neighborhood in English.  This is a blend of three distinct Cabernet Sauvignon Vineyards.  Barrel-aged for over 2-years in 75% French Oak (50% new), it was awarded 94 points and voted Best of Class - Greater Bay Area Appellation at the 2008 California State Fair.  Expect beautiful flavors of dark fruit, cassis, black licorice, tobacco and white pepper with a lingering finish and elegant mid-palate.  This is the wine to pull out with a BBQ’d ribeye steak or braised short ribs.  It is very drinkable now, but the strong acid and silky tannins will allow it to age for the next 10 or more years.
