Robert Mondavi Private Selection Merlot is a medium-bodied red wine with ripe, intense flavors and bright acidity. It opens with aromas of red cherry, Asian plum, cranberry, black olive, tea leaf, baking spice, and sweet oak, with notes of mocha and brown sugar. On the palate, it reveals dark cherry, Marion berry, and plum flavors. Crafted from grapes grown in California’s cool Central Coast vineyards, this wine is aged for 10 months in oak, adding complexity and depth. Perfect on its own or paired with rotisserie chicken, meat ravioli, or wild salmon with herbed cheese, this wine should be served slightly chilled at around 60°F for the best experience.
