Lot #1373. Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 1975

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 96 JGWA.
"There’s a blood and iodine edge to the nose, which is showing some maturity, with spice and hints of earth. But it’s when you get this into your mouth that you realise what a superb wine it is. It’s really fresh and elegant with nice spiciness underpinning the lovely blackcurrant and black cherry fruit. It’s still got an amazing core of fruit, and now at almost 40 years old it is incredibly elegant and at ease with itself. Just 13% alcohol." Jamie Goode, WineAnorak.com, Sep 2015
Notes: 1 neck, 1 very top shoulder, very lightly corroded capsules, 1 lightly wrinkled capsule, 1 very lightly scuffed and 1 lightly scuffed label, 1 sign of slight past seepage.
