Robert Mondavi Meritage Private Selection

Robert Mondavi Meritage Private Selection

Bordeaux Blend

Description: Wine maker notes The Central Coast lets us grow 12 different grapes. Good thing, too. It takes four of them - Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, and Petit Verdot - to make our Meritage. Food pairing Pair: Grilled steak, stew. Producer Robert Mondavi established his namesake winery in 1966 with a vision to create Napa Valley wines that would stand in the company of the world's finest. He chose To Kalon Vineyard in the heart of the Napa Valley as the home for Robert Mondavi Winery. This first-growth vineyard, located in Oakville, California, is renowned for producing some of the finest Cabernet Sauvignon wines in the world, as well as for its Sauvignon Blanc grapes, from which Mr. Mondavi crafted his signature wine, Fume Blanc. Along with To Kalon Vineyard, Robert Mondavi Winery sources grapes from some of Napa Valley's finest vineyards, including Stag's Leap (Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc) and Carneros (Pinot Noir and Chardonnay). Mr. Mondavi believed that wines should reflect their origins, that they are the product of the soil, the climate, and the careful stewardship of those precious resources. He also believed in combining the newest techniques and technology with time-honored winemaking traditions. Our winemaking and vineyard teams are proud to carry on our founder's mandate to always strive higher, to pursue Robert Mondavi's goal of excellence with the same passion and innovative spirit, moving forward with programs that break barriers and open new frontiers. This richly styled red blend is composed of the classic Bordeaux varietals: Merlot, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The nose and palate brim with notes of ripe blackberry, mulberry and blueberry, framed by hints of violet and mulling spices. On the mid-palate, flavors of dark chocolate, cinnamon and Tahitian vanilla prevail. Powerful, chewy tannins support the lengthy finish, redolent with brown sugar, caramel and oak notes.
