Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon The Reserve 2015
Oakville, Napa Valley, California, United States2015 is the fifth vintage of the To Kalon Vineyard designated Reserve. It's easy to see why it's in the reserve program from its intense, pure black cherry streaked with tobacco, chocolate, and savoury sagebrush, to its complex, sweet spice and toasted almond finish. Power and elegance were always the best of the Mondavi traits, and To Kalon has it in spades. The grapes are hand-harvested before going through a three-stage strict sorting process: by vine, then by individual clusters, and then by single berry. Maceration totals 37 days before the juice is run into new French oak. The final blend is a result of repeated tastings over 20 months of barrel ageing. The mix is 92/4/2/2 cabernet sauvignon, merlot, petit verdot, and cabernet franc — all class.Tasted: 05 October 2019Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $150.00 | 750ml | private wine shops |
