Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon The Estates Oakville 2019

94pts – Wine Spectator

Wine Spectator’s #6 Wine of 2022

Robert Mondavi chose Oakville for the home of his winery in 1966 and planted Cabernet Sauvignon with the goal of creating wines that could stand in the company of the world’s finest. Most of the grapes for our Oakville District Cabernet Sauvignon come from our To Kalon Vineyard where the low-fertility, well-drained soils, aided by optimal sun exposure, lead to rich, complex flavors and impeccable fruit maturity.

Tasting Notes

Textural richness defines our Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep, powerful flavors of blackberry, anise, black olive, fresh tobacco, and dark chocolate mingle with sweet oak spices, nutmeg, and clove. The wine is firmly structured by velvety, age-worthy tannins.

Pairs well with
