Robert Mondavi Winery Napa Valley Robert Mondavi Winery Cabernet Sauvignon 1978

An exciting and extremely rare wine to taste, as the To Kalon plot of Cabernet Sauvignon that went into this became Opus One just 12 months later for their inaugural 1979 vintage. The quality of this plot of land is clear to see even at 46 years old, and it was as exciting to share this wine as we had hoped it would be. Dried cranberry, smoked earth, cold ash, white pepper, still so charming, finessed and poised. A landmark wine, fully in its drinking window, made under the direction of Robert Mondavi and his team.
