✨ Technical Specifications
Robert Mondavi founded his iconic winery in 1966 with a vision to create Napa Valley wines that could stand among the finest in the world. This commemorative 60th Anniversary Cabernet Sauvignon represents the culmination of six decades of pioneering winemaking. Sourced primarily from the historic To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville—celebrated for its gravelly, well-drained soils and ideal microclimate—this wine is a classic expression of Napa Valley terroir. Typically dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon and blended with small portions of other Bordeaux varieties like Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, it undergoes traditional fermentation followed by extensive aging in French oak barrels. The result is a wine of profound depth, structure, and elegance, paying homage to Mondavi's enduring legacy.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1966 by visionary vintner Robert Mondavi, Robert Mondavi Winery was established in Oakville with the singular mission of creating Napa Valley wines that could rival the finest estates in the world. Operating from its iconic California Mission-style winery designed by Cliff May, the estate played a pivotal role in pioneering the modern American wine industry, particularly through its stewardship of the historic To Kalon Vineyard. Mondavi championed cutting-edge viticultural techniques, temperature-controlled stainless steel fermentation, French oak barrel aging, and popularized dry-fermented Sauvignon Blanc under the moniker Fumé Blanc. Today, the winery remains globally celebrated for its benchmark Reserve and Oakville Cabernet Sauvignons, as well as its structured, elegant Chardonnays and expressive Bordeaux-style blends.
