80% driven by Mondavi’s To Kalon home-vineyard fruit, with the balance coming from the best blocks of other top vineyards. Shows restrained but very pure dark fruit on the nose with a subtle herbal note. Really opens up in the mouth with plum-cake richness and spice, plush velvety tannins, a lick of dark chocolate. Fine overall balance and a long, complex finish. Great Napa Cab as I recall it used to be.
