Monte Rosso

2008 Sonoma Valley Cabernet Franc

Louis M. Martini's Monte Rosso Cabernet Franc from the 2008 vintage is a delightful red wine that showcases the unique terroir of Sonoma Valley. This full-bodied wine presents a medium acidity that adds a refreshing lift to its bold character. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring lush notes of ripe blackberry and dark cherry, complemented by subtle hints of spice and herbal undertones that provide depth and complexity. The tannins are notable, offering a firm structure that enhances the wine's aging potential while remaining smooth and well-integrated on the palate. With a dryness that allows the fruit to shine through, this Cabernet Franc is a perfect choice for pairing with hearty dishes or enjoyed 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.
