Cabernet Sauvignon Vignette #6 Robert Mondavi Napa Valley 2006




Robert Mondavi Napa Valley 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon, 

$23.99-$29.99, 90 points, has a defined aroma of Currant and spice, complex fruit-driven (Black-berries, Plum) with subtle hints of spice, and is rich yet mellow (12% Merlot).

Everyone hears the name Mondavi, but there is other wineries with that name, and there are lesser and greater products than the the Napa Valley Cabernet, but at a reasonable price, this is the one for me.

The Oakville is almost twice as much, the Reserve is five-times as much, and their $8.99-$10.99 is just a so-so wine to me.
