"Lots of ripe fruit with a lovely core of plums and berries and some fresh herbs. It’s full-bodied and layered. Delicious finish. Drink now or hold."
Wine Advocate, 89 Points
"Composed of 80% Cabernet Franc and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2017 Cabernet Franc delivers notions of Morello cherries, black raspberries and blackberry preserves with an undercurrent of sandalwood, camphor, lavender and bay leaves. The medium to full-bodied palate offers elegant, perfumed red and black fruit with a chewy texture and refreshing lift on the finish."

About the Winery:
"Robert Mondavi established his namesake winery in 1966 with a vision to create Napa Valley wines that would stand in the company of the world’s finest. He chose To Kalon Vineyard in the heart of the Napa Valley as the home for Robert Mondavi Winery. This first-growth vineyard, located in Oakville, California, is renowned for producing some of the finest Cabernet Sauvignon wines in the world, as well as for its Sauvignon Blanc grapes.
Mr. Mondavi believed that wines should reflect their origins, that they are the product of the soil, the climate, and the careful stewardship of those precious resources. He also believed in combining the newest techniques and technology with time-honored winemaking traditions.
Our winemaking and vineyard teams are proud to carry on our founder’s mandate to always strive higher, to pursue Robert Mondavi’s goal of excellence with the same passion and innovative spirit, moving forward with programs that break barriers and open new frontiers."
