The Reserve

Oakville Cabernet Franc

Robert Mondavi Winery The Reserve Cabernet Franc from Oakville is a splendid example of this varietal that truly shines in its home region of Napa Valley. This enchanting red boasts a medium to full-bodied structure, delivering an impressive balance of richness and elegance. The acidity is bright and lively, enhancing the wine's mouthwatering qualities that vivify the palate. With a medium intensity of fruit, expect an alluring array of flavors, including dark cherry and plum, intertwined with hints of spice and subtle earthiness. The tannins are firm yet not overpowering, providing a graceful texture that supports the wine’s complex profile. This Cabernet Franc is a dry delight that perfectly encapsulates Oakville's terroir, making it an exceptional choice for food pairings or savoring on its own.

Napa County

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.
