Nestled between the Vaca and Mayacamas Mountain ranges, the Yountville appellation provides complexity and finesse to our Peter Mondavi Family Cabernet Sauvignon. Blend: 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot,6% Syrah, 2% Cabernet Franc, 1% Merlot, 1% Carignan Aromas of cassis, black cherry and roasted coffee open to flavors of dark cherries, cocoa and black licorice. Robust and full bodied, this wine has chewy tannins and a long, intense finish.

Smelling variously of old leather, shoe polish, dried leaves and smoke, this weighty, plush-on-the-palate effort musters a little more fruit in its flavors and steers clear of burdensome tannins. It could do with a boost in volume and a bit more intensity, but it stays on the Cabernet path.

Rating: 90/100 - As reviewed by Wine & Spirits Magazine on 12/08.

I actually think it may have been an '06, but it was very good.

Would buy again. Powerful at first then smooth and velvety.

Fruity, dry, a bit tannic, good finish for age and price.

Great for BBQ, meats in general.

Had at Fox Valley; very smooth

Drank in Dallas at Sambuca.

A gift from Owen Singer Esq

Full body, strong tannins.

Not worth the price
