Robert Mondavi Mondavi Oakville BDX

The Oakville BDX from Robert Mondavi is a dry red wine from California that puts Cabernet Sauvignon center stage and showcases the character of Oakville in the Napa Valley. It stands for powerful, structured red wines with clear fruit.

Robert Mondavi is one of the defining names in Californian viticulture and made the Napa Valley internationally famous. The name BDX refers to the Bordeaux style: Cabernet Sauvignon provides the structure, combined with other Bordeaux grape varieties. The grapes come from Oakville, one of the valley's most famous sites and home to the To Kalon Vineyard.

In the glass, you can expect dark berry fruit, typical for Cabernet from Oakville: cassis and blackberry, often accompanied by notes of cedar wood and spices. On the palate, the wine feels powerful and dense, with firm yet fine-grained tannins and a persistent finish.

Serve it at 16–18 °C, ideally after decanting briefly. It pairs well with grilled entrecôte, braised beef cheeks, or aged hard cheese. It also makes a great impression at a long dinner with friends.
