Monte Rosso

2002 Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

The Louis M. Martini Monte Rosso 2002 is a captivating Cabernet Sauvignon hailing from the renowned Sonoma Valley. This wine presents a deep, vibrant red color that draws you in immediately. On the palate, it showcases a full-bodied character, balanced by bright acidity which adds a refreshing lift to the wine's richness. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring luscious notes of dark cherry, blackberry, and a hint of plum, which mingle beautifully with subtle undertones of oak and spice. The tannins are firm yet approachable, providing structure and depth without overpowering the fruit. This well-crafted wine is dry, making it a versatile companion for hearty dishes or an enjoyable standalone experience.

Sonoma County
Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.
