9.1

Purchased at the estate to try out after our tasting. Pure golden yellow, not at the same level of intensity as a Sauternes or Vin de Constance. Nose was covered in dried apricots, light pineapple and complex floral notes. Not syrupy thick but a decent viscosity. Lots of honeysuckle and dried white fruits. Moderate body with a delicate finish. Drink till 2023. 305 cases produced. — 8 years ago

Monticello Cabernet Franc Blend 2015

ESF
9.2

This was the “Mountain Plains” special edition bottling, Meritage/Bordeaux style red, and it was impressive. Plenty of stuffing here and it is clearly still VERY young (2015) so after a couple hours in the decanter it began to open up expressing a Left Bank nose of red & black fruit, pencil lead, tobacco, damp Earth and some herbaceous w/white pepper from the large % of Cab Franc. Muscular tannins, exceptionally full-bodied, they got some huge extraction on this wine and did not over-oak it. Played beautifully w/filets - expensive, even by VA wine standards, but they got this one right. — 6 years ago

7 Monticello Port Blend

Interesting port style wine. Brandy and oak stand out. Petite Verdot used in this one. Smooth and easy to drink but may may be a bit too fruity and sweet for some. Lots of "chocolate notes." — 8 years ago

Monticello Vineyards Estate Grown Merlot 2011

Paired great with ribeye, first glass good, second decanted for 45 minutes was amazing. Definitely took away the bite. Earthy, plum notes went perfect with fatty dry aged steak. — 6 years ago
