In the October 2015 issue (Volume 41) of California Grapevine, our 2012 Monte Bello received 93 points and the following glowing review:
“Medium-dark ruby; attractive, rich, deep, cedary, cassis, black cherry, and blackberry fruit aroma that developed with airing in the glass; full body; rich, deep, complex, dark cherry and blackberry fruit flavors with herbal and spicy notes; full tannin; lingering aftertaste. Shows some elegance with outstanding balance and structure, and should reward a good ten more years of bottle aging. Very highly recommended. (Group Score: 16.5, 0/0/1; My Score: 17 [93/100], sixth place)”
