2021 Donnafugata Bell'Assai
Danielle Callegari, Wine Enthusiast, April 2024
“The warm, floral nose features delicate notes of roses and cherry blossoms, as well as more provocatively sweet aromas of strawberries and cream. The palate takes a bitter turn, which is underscored by a latent earthiness, while acid bounces around polished, firm tannins”

2021 Luke Columbia Valley Merlot
Michael Alberty, Wine Enthusiast, April 2024
“A powerful blueberry scent blazes a path for aromas of loamy soil and rose petals dried between the pages of an old book. The wine's flavor combination of black tea, marionberry muffins and oatcakes is like breakfast breaking out—only this meal includes tannins so muscular, they grab you by the lapels and steal your milk money.”

2021 Luke Columbia Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Michael Alberty, Wine Enthusiast, April 2024
“The black currant and raspberry aromas are so rich, this wine tiptoes up to cassis territory. Its viscous texture makes the blueberry, poached pear and cinnamon flavors feel like they are careening down a backyard Slip 'N Slide. You can expect plush tannins, medium acidity and a touch of cedar on the finish.”

Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, February 2024
“A rich, luxurious sweetie, with flavors of orange glacée, pink grapefruit sorbet, spun honey, apple peel and butterscotch melting on the palate like cotton candy.

“Like a swathe of fine silk, this is finely knit and graceful, integrating supple, deftly honed tannins and orange peel acidity. Offers a lovely range of crushed mulberry, raspberry, oolong tea leaf, vanilla and smoke notes. This is quietly persistent on the finish, with delicate hints of milled pepper and anise. Sit and sip slowly, as this opens beautifully in the glass. Drink now through 2034.”

2019 M by Michael Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon
Jeb Dunnuck, Jeb Dunnuck, December 2023
“ Revealing a dense plum hue as well as a great nose of blackcurrants, blackberries, truffly earth, iron, and chocolaty oak, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a broad, expansive mouthfeel, velvety tannins, and a great finish. This incredibly hedonistic, sexy beauty will evolve nicely for another 15-20 years if well stored.”

2019 M by Michael Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon
Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, January 2024
“The 2019 M Red Wine is a blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc. Sourced from Atlas Peak, it's a big step up from the other offerings from Michael Mondavi Family Wines, offering concentrated notions of black cherries, cassis, hints of smoked meat and dried sage. Medium to full-bodied, it's creamy-supple up front, easing into a long finish framed by velvety tannins.”
