Robert Mondavi Private Selection Cabernet Sauvignon Red Wine offers fresh fruit character and bright acidity. This wine opens with aromas of ripe black cherries, blackberries, red berry, and spice. Crafted with grapes grown in the cool climate of California's Central Coast vineyards along the Pacific Ocean, this medium-bodied wine is aged for 10 months in French and American oak barrels. This barrel aging, along with the red grapes' slow ripening process, imparts a pleasing complexity and depth of flavor to this Central Coast wine. With luscious flavors of ripe Bing cherries and blueberry, which are accented by toasty oak and hints of coffee and vanilla flavors, this delicious red wine pairs well with grilled lamb and steak, hearty pasta, strong cheeses, and a variety of other dishes. Feature this California red wine at a wine and cheese party, or enjoy a glass of wine on its own. For optimal taste, store this red wine at room temperature, but chill it for 30 to 60 minutes and serve cool at approximately 60 degrees.
A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.
