ROBERT MONDAVI PRIVATE SELECTION CHARDONNAY

At Robert Mondavi we have long recognized the distinctive vineyards of California's coast.  For decades we have sourced fruit from coastal regions and in 1994 we introduced Robert Mondavi Private Selection wines to exhibit the high quality and character of our coastal grapes.

The wines of Robert Mondavi Private Selection are approachable, with bright fruit expression and exceptional balance.  They honour the vineyards of California's coast with great depth and texture, while minimizing the influences of oak and tannin.  From light and lively to full-bodied and concentrated, all Robert Mondavi Private Selection wines are crafted to be enjoyed upon release.

RECOMMENDATIONS: Try with many of your favourite cheeses, salads and spicy appetizers.

WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS: Elegant aromas and flavours of fresh pear, apple and tropical fruit mingle with delicate floral accents in this Chardonnay.  The wine's bright, rich flavours and beautiful balance come from California's Central Coast vineyards.  Here, cool Pacific winds temper the summer sun and give Chardonnay grapes ripe flavours with crisp acidity.  Fermentation in small oak barrels and stainless steel tanks, followed by aging on the yeast, wove oak complexity through the silky texture and lingering finish.
