Rated 94
CELLAR SELECTION
This potent but sophisticated wine combines powerful, focused black fruit flavors with restrained mint, toast and cocoa accents cradled by fine-grained tannins that help it glide smoothly through the palate and lingering finish. Boosted by 20% Petite Sirah, it will drink best from 2025-2035.
Vineyard Notes
The McNab Ranch stands as the agricultural core of Bonterra Organic Estate's vineyards in Mendocino County. Situated along McNab Creek, a tributary of the Russian River and a vital steelhead spawning area, this 371-acre estate underwent a remarkable transition from a sheep farm to a flourishing vineyard ecosystem. With biodynamic certification dating back to 1996, the McNab single-vineyard bottling showcases a blend of top-quality red wines sourced from this iconic location, with Cabernet Sauvignon taking the lead.
Wine Tasting Notes
Bonterra The McNab Biodynamic Mendocino Cabernet exhibits a delightful intricacy and sophistication, showcasing a harmonious blend of luscious, ripe fruit and a structure that promises aging potential. The aroma presents a medley of sweet purple, blue, and black berries, infused with the enticing fragrance of vanilla bean and a hint of summer bramble. On the palate, an explosion of blue fruit and plums intertwines with the aromatic notes of mocha, cedar, cloves, pepper, savory herbs, and pencil lead. The wine is gracefully upheld by finely-knit oak tannins, leading to a lingering finish of refreshing mint tea and dark fruits.
Varietals: 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Petite Sirah
Alcohol: 14.2%
