Black Truffles, 2005 Chateau Montelena Estate Cabernet Sauvignon ...the makings of a great dinner...the prime dry aged Filet Mignons are resting comfortably off camera.

Outstanding meal. You can never go wrong with wrapping a filet mignon and copious amounts of sliced black truffles in puff pastry. Roasted to medium rare and served with Sauce Perigueux.

The Montelena was classic. Deep ruby red color with red raspberry on the front opening to cherry and clove on the finish. Very Bordeaux-like. Complex with good structure.
