Jeb Dunnuck: 97+ Points
The flagship 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve To Kalon Vineyard is based on 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% each of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot that was raised 20 months in new barrels. Dense black fruits violets spicy chocolaty oak and scorched earth-like nuances all define the aromatics and this beauty is full-bodied with a layered opulent mouthfeel velvety tannins and a great finish. I love its overall layered broad expansive profile and as with most 2021s it's built for the long haul. Hide bottles for 5-7 years if you can and it should have 2-3 decades of overall longevity.

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon The Reserve To Kalon Vineyard Heritage Clone is sensational. Soaring aromatics are captivating right out of the gate. Lavender sage tobacco cedar dried flowers and bay leaf convey an impression of classicism that immediately distinguishes this bottling in the range. I hope this wine will be the model for the future at Robert Mondavi Winery. What a wine! - By Antonio Galloni on December 2024 Director of Winemaking Kurtis Ogasawara worked his way through the ranks at Robert Mondavi Winery. Today he oversees a collection of wines that is increasingly focused on highlighting the many nuances of the winery?s significant holdings in To Kalon. I was deeply impressed with the wines I tasted. I see a new level of energy and vibrancy in the Mondavi wines that is compelling.
Wine Spectator: 95 Points
This is lush and seductive in feel with a gush of boysenberry and blackberry compote flavors that rolls through along with melted black licorice mocha and Christmas pudding accents. A flash of warm paving stone at the tail end keeps this grounded and a charming purity emerges as this airs in the glass. Best from 2025 through 2040. 1700 cases made. Published on November 15 2024
