To commemorate Boxing Day this year, please enjoy this beautiful three-bottle gift box, filled with a mini-vertical of our acclaimed MONTICELLO 'Corley Reserve' Proprietary Red Wines from our library. Winemaker Chris Corley has selected three vintages from our library that are tasting absolutely terrific right now ... our 2006, 2007, and 2008. As we enter into 2023, our Proprietaery Red Wine 2008 will be a featured 15 year library selection, and as we transition from 2022 to 2023, you can enjoy the transitions of these three wonderful and distinct vintages. Enjoy!
This wine has a deep and vibrant magenta hue that persists to the edge of the glass. The aromas are very inviting, enticing with tones of dark berry fruits, chocolate and smoky coffee. On the palate the wine makes a bold entrance which is reaffirmed by a strong personality at its core. The mid-palate is big and the wine is nicely framed with chewy tannins that will allow this wine to age gracefully well into the next decade. The finish is long and lingering, this wine will reward the patient oenophile. Decant 30-60 Minutes.
I’m enjoying this wine now and feel that it will age well through 2025, perhaps longer. – Chris Corley, Winemaker
