A rye whiskey barrel-aged California red blend from Monterey County, produced by Robert Mondavi Private Selection. The cuvée blends Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. Select sets are aged in genuine rye whiskey barrels before final blending, a technique that remains rare in wine. Rye barrel ageing gives a drier, more peppery spice character than bourbon barrel ageing. The nose has ripe boysenberry and black cherry, warm baking spices, sweet mesquite smoke, tobacco leaf and barley malt. The palate is lush and fruit-forward, with gingerbread spice, cinnamon, blackberry and chocolatey tannins. The finish is medium, with subtle smoke, cinnamon and dark chocolate.
