Robert Mondavi Cabernet Franc 2016

Textural richness defines our deeply concentrated, dark-fruited Oakville cabernet sauvignon, wrapping blackberry, black plum and blueberry flavors in warm baking spices and toasty oak and sending them across the silky palate structured by firm, fine-grained, tannins.

80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Malbec, 7% Petite Verdot, 4% Merlot

Aromas of spices and walnuts with dark-berry and currant character. Eucalyptus, too. Medium to full body, fine tannins and a subtle, fruity finish. Beautiful now. 

Dusty gravel and crushed rock earthiness make for a heady, memorable experience in this varietal wine, a standout from the producer. Dried herb, currant and cassis mingle around a soft well-integrated texture of lengthy tannins and classic oak, the body full and fleshy.
