F., the most prestigious brand of Les Vins Skalli, was created in 1998 with the 1996 vintage. F. wines, christened in homage to Francis Skalli, father of Robert. Conceived to convey the timeless expression of great wines, F. is distributed in strictly limited quantities. F. wines epitomize the winemaking know-how of Les Vins Skalli venerable vines, patient vinification followed by eighteen months of aging in French oak barrels, under the expert advice of Michel Rolland, who assists Les Vins Skalli with winemaking. The vinification is traditional and involves long maceration periods in order to encourage the extraction of both the substance and the aromas. The wines are all vinified and aged separately for 18 months in French oak barrels. After one year, Skalli proceed with the definitive blending, which will melt together harmoniously during the last 6 months in barrels. A dark red coloured wine with a nose of small red fruit combined with nuances of caramel. A refined wine with a great ampleness which never ceases to expand throughout the tasting. The tannins, present but perfectly granular, contribute to this sensation of volume. Notes of toast and undergrowth. The finish is remarkable for its length marked by the perception of a refined touch of wood and jammy black fruit. (6 x 75 cl)

Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley California
Description: At 90 years of age, Robert Mondavi remains the global emissary for these wine. His vision was to create wines in California that belong in the company of the great wines of the world. Robert Mondavi is known for producing hand-crafted wines of distinct style. Representing the best of California wine growing regions, including the legendary Napa Valley, each of the wines offers unique qualities and characteristics. Robert Mondavi Winery is located in the heart of Napa Valley, California. The first major winery built in Napa Valley in the post-Prohibition era, Robert Mondavi Winery helped establish the foundation for the modern-day California wine business. Its mission-style architecture, with the expansive archway and bell tower designed by Cliff May, has become an enduring landmark that evokes California's winemaking history. Mondavi selected the majority of the grapes from the center of Napa Valley, a region well known for producing intensely flavoured Cabernet family grape varieties. The balance of sunny days and cool, foggy nights in Napa Valley is perfect for developing complex, ripe flavours and supple tannins in Cabernet Sauvignon. A range of soils-from alluvial to lean volcanic-contributes to the diverse flavours in this wine. Mondavi chose 35% of the grapes from the Oakville AVA, including 33% from Robert Mondavi To Kalon Vineyard, and 22% from the Stags Leap District AVA, including 7% from Robert Mondavi Wappo Hill Vineyard. The balance of the grapes came from the Rutherford AVA and other Napa Valley vineyards. Ripe dark berry, spice, violet and chocolate weave through the aromas and smooth, velvety flavours of this Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. These rich, expressive flavours come from the soils and climates of vineyards located primarily in the geographic center of Napa Valley. Firm tannins support the abundant fruit character and give the wine excellent length on the palate. Fermentation with both cultured and native yeast strains gives layers of nuance to the wine, and extended skin contact intensifies varietal complexity and softens tannins. Finally, Mondavi aged the wine in French oak chateau barrels for over 18 months to enhance the lush texture and add spicy oak accents to this wine. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £252.46
