High Density Oakville

2009 Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon

The Robert Mondavi Winery High Density Oakville 2009 is a remarkable expression of Cabernet Sauvignon hailing from the prestigious Oakville region in Napa Valley. This full-bodied red wine boasts a rich, deep ruby color that entices the eye. On the nose, it exhibits enticing aromas of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, intertwined with notes of cedar, spice, and a hint of vanilla derived from oak aging. The palate is vibrant, showcasing a perfect balance of fruit intensity and bright acidity, providing a lively mouthfeel that invigorates the senses. The tannins are firm yet gracefully integrated, contributing to the wine's overall structure and aging potential. This wine finishes elegantly, leaving a lasting impression with its powerful fruit and harmonious oak nuances. A true testament to the quality and craftsmanship of Robert Mondavi Winery, this Cabernet Sauvignon is both approachable now and poised for further development in the cellar.

It may be small, but when it comes to American wine regions, they do not come much bigger than Napa County. Home to the famous Napa Valley, which comprises most of its area, the Napa name has gained global recognition for its exceptional wines—especially its Bordeaux varieties. Most Napa County wineries choose to be more location-specific when labeling their wine, listing the name of sub-regions like Yountville, Los Carneros or Rutherford to capitalize on the name recognition. However, with such an abundance of high-quality grapes grown across the region, plenty of négociant winemakers blend fruit from different sub-regions. This gives Napa County wines excellent regional balance, taking advantage of different terroirs and mesoclimates.
