ROBERT MONDAVI PRIVATE SELECTION MERLOT

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 grilled lamb brochettes with rosemary, chicken ragout with potatoes, peppers and olives, and grilled pizza.

WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS: Smooth and silky, this Merlot displays seductive layers of berry, plum, violet and spice character.  The wine's fruit-forward style comes from California's Central Coast vineyards where the grapes ripen slowly and develop a myriad of flavours.
