Tasting notes
The 2007 Monile (80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot) is a touch softer than the 2008. Layers of dark fruit, spices, leather and licorice open up onto the palate in this rich, textured wine. The 2007 possesses lovely density and a round, enveloping finish.

The 2007 Monile (80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot) is a touch softer than the 2008. Layers of dark fruit, spices, leather and licorice open up onto the palate in this rich, textured wine. The 2007 possesses lovely density and a round, enveloping finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2017. This is a solid set of red wines from Viticcio. As is sometime the case, the lower end wines are more successful, while some of the higher end wines fall victim to the temptation of trying to do too much.
