Description

Starting at the spry age of 10, the Mondavi sisters – Angelina, Alycia, Riana and Giovanna – spent their summers learning the family business. A typical summer day for the girls entailed odd jobs throughout the winery, including schlepping hoses, cleaning tanks, soaking bottles, pulling samples and running lab analyses.

A family tradition of summer winery jobs led each sister to love the industry. Continuing the family legacy, the four sisters launched Mondavi Sisters’ Collection in 2005, which includes their Napa Valley cult brands, Aloft and Dark Matter wines.

Truly a family brand, the Mondavi Sisters strive to create a wine of superior quality that continues to honor their legacy, their land and each vintage with the same passion and devotion their forefathers passed down for generations.

The sisters are excited to tap into their vault to offer you one case of their 2008 inaugural vintage of Aloft.

The 2008 Aloft reflects aromas of ripe blackberries, deep black currants and elegant rose petals that express themselves in an earthy framework. On the palate you’ll notice black cherries, plum and hints of tobacco and mineral – all made possible by our Howell Mountain sanctuary. Silky tannins, a smooth mouthfeel and a lingering hint of heavenly dark chocolate round out the full experience of this Cabernet Sauvignon.
