2008 Robert Mondavi Winery Fumé Blanc
| Vintage: | 2008 |
| Wine Type: | White Wine |
| Varietal: | Fume Blanc |
| Appellation: | Napa Valley |
| PH: | 3.33 |
| Aging: | 4 months in French Oak |
| Alcohol %: | 13.9 |
| Tasting Notes: | 92% Sauvignon Blanc, 8% Semillon Intense primary aromas of lemongrass mingle with the subtle scent of lime blossoms and hints of sage and spice. Mouthfilling flavors of crisp yellow peach are couched in a very smooth, rounded texture. Thanks to the small Sauvignon Blanc yields of 2008, flavors are concentrated and the wine is already very expressive in its youth. |
| Ratings: | Restaurant Wine - May 2010 Rated 4+ Stars "Fine quality: an excellent wine, that is supple, subtle yet complex in character, with good balance, and a long finish, tasting of lemon grass, lime, toast, grapefruit, and pineapple." |
