Robert Mondavi 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley |
|
The name Robert Mondavi is practically synonymous with Cabernet Sauvignon, ever since he pioneered the making of varietal wines in Napa Valley back in the late 1960's. This 2010 is the latest example and shows the outstandingly consistent quality they've maintained over the decades. A blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 2% Syrah, 1% Petit Verdot and 1% Malbec aged 17 months in French oak barrels. Wine Enthusiast Magazine scored the 2009 91 points saying. "Textbook Napa Cab. It’s dry, smoothly tannic and subtle, with blackberry, cassis and dark chocolate flavors nicely intrigued with herbs, tobacco and cedar. Just delicious now and for the next few years."
