Arch & Tower is a new concept for Robert Mondavi, offering a high end tasting experience. Each table is assigned a sommelier to describe the wines and how to fully appreciate them. Marlon, our sommelier, was terrific. No judgement regarding one's knowledge of wine.
One shouldn't expect to "love" each wine, but at least leave with an appreciation of the different varietals. Of our 4 tastings, the Pinot noir was the unanimous winner. Of course, if you like any of the wine new you taste, you're welcome to purchase bottles.
As this was our 3rd tasting of the day, we were getting a little buzzed, so we ordered some food. We had a large order of some of the best waffle fries you'll ever eat. And a plate of roasted olives.
An enjoyable hour or two. But some street signage would be helpful. If you don't know the label for Robert Mondavi, you could spend quite a while looking for the tasting room. One last thought. Make a reservation.
