Sipping Fine Wine

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. A blend of 92% Sauvignon Blanc & 8% Semillon (I always like when a little Semillon is added). The “Fume” style was created by Robert Mondavi many years ago. Complex aromas, fresh citrus with enticing herbal notes. Orange and citrus flavors adding grapefruit and lemon tones, great acidity balance, rich and smooth, medium finish ending with grassy mineral character. Great value. Tasting Sample.

One of the best bottles I’ve found it’s light but still crisp enough for a nice kick. An amazing glass on a hot summer day or a cool fall night.

Light straw color with a mild aroma. Not too sweet with a smokey and smooth finish. Very good.

Not bad, a little dry for my taste but pretty smooth. Good gift bottle

Melon aroma appears first, behind which there’s an aroma of butter. The initial flavour is akin to bell pepper and overall quite vegetal. The finish is long and dry.

I used it to deglaze some shallot gravy. Gravy turned out pretty good.
