From Michael Mondavi, this is another great Cabernet Sauvignon, which seems to be in the DNA of this family. Michael Mondavis 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon M has an opaque ruby/purple color and a gorgeous nose of crme de cassis, licorice, a touch of graphite and background oak. Fresh, youthful and belying its ten years of age, it tastes more like 3- to 5-year-old Napa Cabernet. The wine is full-bodied, impressively endowed, and set for a good two decades of aging.93+ points from Robert Parker, The Wine AdvocateWinery Notes: The elegance of M Cabernet Sauvignon, inspired by both the reds of Bordeaux and the legendary Robert Mondavi Reserve Cabernets of the 1960s and early 19070s that Michael made himself. With inspiration of balance and elegance from the past the modern hand shows through via the ripe dark fruits and approachable generosity of the wine.
