Michael Mondavi’s inspiration, integrity, and relentless work ethic helped elevate Napa Valley wines to the prestige and quality they are known for today. His legacy continues with M by Michael Mondavi Family, his very personal signature wine.

The 2019 M by Michael Mondavi Family is a Cabernet Sauvignon focused red wine blend from Napa Valley, California. The wine expresses the essence of the vintage and is a wine of both generosity and elegance. Its deep, iridescent ruby color sets the stage for a complex bouquet of rose, cherry blossom, violets, and currant leaf, enhanced by notes of black cherry, roasted chestnuts, vanilla, and marzipan, which harmonize with toasty oak notes and, well-integrated tannins. The long, satisfying finish lingers with a subtle hint of tobacco.

Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
Sustainably farmed, volcanic hillside vineyard located on the slope of Atlas Peak, overlooking Napa Valley. The select vine blocks produce smaller clusters and grapes that naturally provide ample intensity of color, tannins, and texture.
Production Notes
The beginning of the 2019 growing season was defined by copious rainfall and late soil moisture. The long, warm summer saw very few extreme heat events, with foggy mornings setting the stage for vibrant and expressive wines. The long, relatively mild finish to the season, not without its moments of unpredictability, helped to preserve freshness and finesse in the fruit with abundant hang time teasing out great color, structure and soft tannins. All in all, exceptional fruit with bright acidity and ample texture promises an amazing vintage. Harvest took place October 17th-25th.
