Montestell 2000 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Paarl)

  1. $20
Oiled leather, cocoa, and red delicious apple aromas work well with the palate of sweet blackberries and cedar. Ripe red plum and anise serve as ample support through to the pepper and blackberry layered finish. This is uncomplicated and fruit-forward.  — K.F.  (4/1/2003)

The tart berry flavors here wear some cinnamon, chocolate and earth accents. Still, they can't rise above stronger bitter notes and sharp tannins.  — M.M.  (11/15/2004)

Montestell 2002 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Paarl)

  1. $18
Aromas of menthol and stewed berry translate to the mouth, with some additional green pepper flavor. This wine’s structure is hollow and flabby, with a sharp, tangy finish. Imported by Great Wines International.  — M.D.  (3/1/2006)
