Robert Mondavi Private Selection Bourbon Barrel-Aged Cabernet Sauvignon is a testament to thoughtful winemaking. Crafted from carefully selected California fruit and finished in American oak bourbon barrels, it delivers a bold yet balanced expression that brings depth, character, and richness to every occasion.
Our founder believed that wine has the power to elevate life’s moments and bring people together. That philosophy continues to inspire every bottle of Robert Mondavi Private Selection, where a commitment to quality and expertise guides the journey from vineyard to glass. Carefully sourced fruit from California’s premier growing regions provides the foundation for wines that are expressive, approachable, and meant to be shared.
Our Bourbon Barrel-Aged Cabernet Sauvignon reflects this philosophy of thoughtful winemaking. Sourced primarily from California’s Central Coast and Lodi regions, the wine develops concentrated flavor, deep color, and rounded tannins through a long growing season shaped by warm days and cool nights. Following fermentation and blending, a portion of the wine is aged for an additional three months in new American oak bourbon barrels, imparting layers of complexity while complementing the wine’s natural fruit character.
The result is a Cabernet Sauvignon with aromas of ripe dark berries, coffee, blackberry cobbler, and toasted graham cracker, accented by nuances of sweet spice, smoke, and cocoa. Soft tannins and a long, lush finish create a bold yet approachable wine that pairs beautifully with grilled steaks, smoked brisket, and bourbon-glazed ribs. Bringing together the heritage of California winemaking and the distinctive influence of bourbon barrel aging, Robert Mondavi Private Selection Bourbon Barrel-Aged Cabernet Sauvignon offers a unique expression of craftsmanship—one designed to be savored, shared, and enjoyed as part of what Robert Mondavi called The Good Life.
