Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville is a step up and comes all from the To Kolan Vineyard in Oakville. It has a terrific array of cassis and caramelized cherry fruits intermixed with notes of flowers and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, light on its feet, and wonderfully balanced, it offers more precision, purity, and class than the base Napa release and will keep for 10-15 years. Maturity: 2021-2026. Score – 94. (jebdunnuck.com, Aug. 5, 2021)
