To Kalon

2006 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

The Robert Mondavi Winery To Kalon 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon is a remarkable expression of Napa Valley's rich terroir. Characterized by its full-bodied structure, this wine showcases an exquisite balance of high acidity that adds a refreshing brightness to every sip. The fruit intensity is prominent, featuring luscious notes of dark berries, plum, and hints of blackcurrant, which seamlessly meld with the wine’s underlying oak influence. Tannins are notably firm, providing a robust framework that enhances the wine's aging potential. This Cabernet is crafted in a dry style, making it an ideal companion for hearty dishes, such as grilled lamb or a rich beef stew. A true testament to California winemaking, this wine encapsulates the essence of the To Kalon vineyard and delivers an unforgettable tasting experience.

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.
