Description

Acres of tranquil privacy with a large vineyard of world-class Cabernet Sauvingnon. Italian Riviera Villa in the heart of the California wine country. Perched atop its own small mountain, the magnificent Villa Montebella commands spectacular wine-country views of two majestic valleys and you can even see the San Francisco Bay from the top of the hill. The long private drive winds upward through a canopy of live oaks until the stunning Villa bursts into view surrounded first by a necklace of ten acres of terraced world-class Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards then manicured lawns, exotic plants, and beautiful gardens, highlighted by the sights and sounds of dozens of soaring palms gently swaying with the breeze. The only thing missing from this Italian-inspired Villa is the Mediterranean Sea!
