Vinous 90 points - Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is a rich, boisterous wine that will drink well with minimal cellaring. Ripe dark cherry, plum, leather, chocolate, spice and menthol are front and center in this boisterous, explosive Napa Valley Cabernet. Best of all, this flashy and flamboyant Cabernet is a fabulous value..January/2020
James Suckling 93 points - Balanced and juicy with chocolate, spice, walnut and currant character. Medium to full body. Lightly austere and toned. Drink or hold..February/2020
Fruit for our Napa Valley Cabernet includes two of the valley’s most renowned sub-appellations. Twenty-six percent is from our historic To Kalon vineyard in Oakville located on the well-drained alluvial bench surrounding the winery. An additional 10% comes from our Wappo Hill Vineyard in the Stag’s Leap district. The varying mesoclimates and soils of these two vineyards elicit a wonderfully concentrated, expressive, and classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and are combined with fruit from a number of the area’s finest vineyards for the perfect expression of the region.
