WOODBRIDGE BY ROBERT MONDAVI CABERNET SAUVIGNON

In 1979, the Robert Mondavi family acquired the Cherokee Wine Association, established by Lodi grape growers as a cooperative for producing wine in the 1930's. Renovated and renamed Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi, the winery has become a leader in the popular premium wine category.

California and Lodi appellation Woodbridge wines are made using many of the gentle handling and natural winegrowing methods employed at the Robert Mondavi Winery in Napa Valley. The grapes are selectively chosen from among California's top growing areas, including the Lodi/Delta region surrounding the winery, and the North and Central Coasts.

RECOMMENDATIONS: Good with everything, from grilled rib-eye steak to dark chocolate cake!

WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS: This wine has exceptionally deep, ruby colour and lush dark fruit expression from the superb growing season.  The aromas and flavours burst with black cherry and blackberry character woven with complex nuances of cocoa, bay leaf and sweet dried spice.  The velvety Cabernet profile comes from grapes grown primarily in the Lodi region.  Aging in small oak barrels added warm oak tones to the inviting aromas, smooth flavours and lingering finish.
