MICHAEL MONDAVI EMBLEM 93

Description

Black currant, cacao and a wisp of eastern spices from the French oak provide structure and a graceful finish. Hints of floral from both the Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot are exotically layered over the plum and bramble based fruit notes. This wine is ready to drink now with a tannin structure that also provides the potential of elegant cellaring and aging.
90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Petit Sirah, 5% Petit Verdot, 100% French Oak (66% new) for 18 months.

THE MICHAEL MONDAVI FAMILY IS BUILT ON FOUR GENERATIONS OF WINEMAKING HISTORY, AND WE’VE CHANNELED IT TO BRING YOU A COMPREHENSIVE PORTFOLIO OF WORLD-CLASS WINES.
The Mondavi family has always championed Cabernet Sauvignon as Napa Valley’s premier grape. Emblem represents the continuation of this visionary commitment and the passing of the torch to the next generation of the Michael Mondavi family.
Under the Emblem label, siblings Rob Mondavi Jr. and Dina Mondavi have collaborated to produce two standout Cabernets. The first wine is a distinct Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from the family’s Oso Vineyard (nestled between Ink Grade and Howell Mountain)—it’s age-worthy and structured, with palpable tannins in its finish. The second wine is a more approachable, softer Cabernet blend crafted from several worthy locations across Napa Valley.
