Description
This wine showcases the last vintage of fruit from selected mature vines in G Block—which were pulled after the 2008 harvest—at the famous Montelena Estate vineyard in Calistoga. G Block was replanted in 1974 by Jim Barrett during the massive replanting program under his new ownership. This is a fitting finale for these venerable vines after decades of contribution to our world-class Montelena Estate Cabernet Sauvignon.
