Monte Rosso

2002 Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2002 Louis M. Martini Monte Rosso Cabernet Sauvignon is a splendid expression of Sonoma Valley's rich terroir. This wine showcases a full-bodied profile, with a high acidity that invigorates the palate and brings a lively brightness to each sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, offering layers of dark cherry, blackberry, and hints of spice, all complementing each other beautifully. Tannins are notably structured, providing a firm backbone that ensures a long aging potential while adding a sense of sophistication to the overall experience. As a dry red, this Cabernet Sauvignon invites you to savor its complexity, making it a superb choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoying on its own.

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.
