Score 92/100 · Drink 2001-2020, Robert Parker, Dec 1998
The outstanding 1996 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville offers an opaque purple color, and knock-out aromas of creme de cassis, vanillin, and weedy tobacco. Full-bodied, rich, and muscular, as well as complex, this fleshy, deep wine is immensely impressive. As it sits in the glass, blueberry/blackberry aromas emerge, adding to its overall appeal. Anticipated Maturity: 2001-2020. Tel. (707) 259-9463 and (800) MONDAVI; Fax (707) 963-1007
