Michael Mondavi Family Estate Animo Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 750mL

Grape Varietals:

86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot

Tasting Notes:

Aromatics of cocoa nibs, turmeric, suede, and broken, mixed berries perfume the wine, while notes of fresh, red currant along with blackberry nuances culminate for a bright acidity on the palate followed by a rounded texture and nicely structured yet plush tannins.

93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, "The Animo is a second label, a cross section from the ranch. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Animo opens with expressive blackberry pie and blueberry compote notes with hints of red currant jelly, cinnamon stick, rose hip tea, dried lavender and cigar box. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has fantastic tension and a solid frame of ripe, grainy tannins supporting the vibrant black and red fruits, finishing long and perfumed."
