1997 Robert Mondavi Reserve Cabernet - 94 Pts!
Originally planted in 1868, the To Kalon Vineyard has become recognized as one of the finest first-growth vineyards of the world. Ancient Greek for “the highest beauty,” To Kalon is the historic vineyard that provides Robert Mondavi Winery with grapes for its world-class Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve and Oakville District Cabernet Sauvignon

Robert Mondavi, who had such a profound influence on the quality of American wine, unfortunately left us to be with the Lord in 2008. He had plenty of reasons to feel great about his wines as they continue to represent some of the finest reference points for what California expressions can achieve.

Rating 94 RP - As for the 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve this wine seems more subdued than it did last year and might be going through a relatively closed stage. As it sat in the glass it took on an almost Ducru-Beaucaillou or Leoville-Las Cases St.-Julien-like character with notes of minerals cedar wood black currants tobacco and spice. JSThis is a rich dark ruby/purple-colored wine with very complex aromatics medium to full body tight structure and plenty of tannin in the finish. There are 20000 cases. RP
