Wine is my hobby. Fine wine tasting notes and experiences.

2019 Robert Mondavi Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

Tasting note

Deep purple red. Medium intensity on the nose: blackcurrant, blueberry, black plum, cherry, green pepper. No surprise here, this is very typical of the variety. Also on the palate, here it is mainly cherry and plum. Medium length. Solid, but for me no clear profile and not affordable relative to many wines in its Bordeaux-style peer group.

Drink through 2029.
