Composition 95% Sauvignon Blanc, 5% Sémillon

To Kalon is situated on prime benchland in west Oakville. The well-drained soils combine with ideal sun exposure to yield rich,
complex flavors and flawless fruit maturity. The Sauvignon Blanc in this blend is sourced primarily from the Monastery Block at the northern end of To Kalon and offers a beautiful tropical and stone fruit character. A portion of the blend comes from V Block, offering youthful, higher-toned fruit with great juiciness and freshness. A small amount of Sémillon adds viscosity and texture to the finished wine.

Pts. Wine Advocate "Mondavi's 2022 Fume Blanc The Reserve To Kalon Vineyard includes 5% Sémillon and comes from the Monastery Block of the vineyard. It's 91% barrel fermented in 35% new French oak, with the other 9% going into concrete. Fig, pear, and pineapple notes are accented on the nose by spicy oak and hints of honey, while the medium to full-bodied palate is round yet finishes clean, crisp, long, and mouthwatering." - Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, October 17, 2024
