Robert Mondavi Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (1.5 Liter Magnum) 2004
Cabernet Sauvignon
from Napa Valley, California
winemaker's notes:
Number 9 on Wine Spectator's Top 100 of 2007!
"A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Petit Verdot, the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve, which mostly comes from To-Kalon, has a relatively small production in this vintage (7,500 cases). The wine has a dense purple color and a wonderful, sweet, almost St.-Julien like nose of licorice, red and black currants, cedar, and spice. Medium to full-bodied, elegant, but authoritatively flavored, this wine is still young, rich, and very fine."
Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate
92 Points
"Weaves together a complex array of ripe, rich currant, anise, smoky oak and black cherry. Dense, concentrated and persistent, with great depth and focus, ending with an amazingly long, richly flavored finish. Best from 2008 through 2018."
