De-stemmed and crushed, combination of submersion and aerative pump-overs, keeps tannins supple while maximising depth of fruit extraction. Extended maceration average 21-28 days before pressing.
The wine was transferred into French oak barrels (45% new) for malolacticfermentation and 22 months of aging, followed by 6 months aging in bottle.

Michael Mondavi is one of the best known names in Californian wine, and the eldest son of the late Robert Mondavi with whom he co-founded the Robert Mondavi Winery in Napa Valley in 1966. The Mondavi dynasty needs little introduction. The family can be credited with establishing the Napa Valley as a fine wine region and Cabernet Sauvignon as its signature wine.
The Emblem wines and the flagship ‘M’, are all 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and continue the Mondavi family tradition of producing elegant, refined wines that take the left bank of Bordeaux as their inspiration.
The grapes for ‘M’ are selected from Michael’s private, single “Animo” vineyard which was formerly used to supply grapes for Opus One. The wine has very quickly built a reputation as one of California’s very best.
