Subject: Mount Eden ~ Now for their Red!

This small historic estate, founded in 1945, is located on a 2000 foot peak in the Santa Cruz Mountain Appellation. While the Chardonnay gets most of the attention, their Cabernet is every bit as intriguing. The Cabernet cuttings date back to those brought by famed viticulturist Emmett Rixford from Chateau Margaux in the 1890s. Definitely Bordeaux in style, the bottle we tasted last week was still singing four days after opening. Honest!

2011 Mount Eden Cabernet Sauvignon
$780 case ($65 bottle)
95 Points Antonio Galloni
"Mount Eden's 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon offers a striking interplay of ripe, flamboyant fruit and supporting mountain structure. Fresh, vibrant and energetic to the core, this stunning, beautifully delineated Cabernet Sauvignon might need another decade to show the full breadth of its pedigree, but it's all there. The blend includes 5% Merlot, 1% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot."
