Robert Mondavi Winery To Kalon The Reserve Red Blend 2021 Review
The legacy of Robert Mondavi needs no introduction. The Mondavi family was one of the most influential wine families in the United States, helping bring Napa Valley and American wine back on the map after a decade of Prohibition. The Reserve is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, with a small amount of Petit Verdot and Malbec, and is as stoic as the legacy the Mondavis have built. Deep dark fruit notes flecked with subtle savory hints fill the nose. There’s also some balsamic, a touch of coffee, and anise. The mouthfeel is epically soft with endless depth.
