1992 Cabs and Blends

[winoweenie]

Mondavi Napa Unfiltered and Reserve. Took these with us to Vail and maybe the elevation played havoc with my normally indiscriminate taste-buds, but came away with the impression that I`m a big dummy to have payed the difference between the Reserve price abd the Napa. Both wines were dark, dense and had lots of good stuff going in the aromatics. The Reserve was the sleeker, polished, and more dominate of the two but it was because of that Ole` Demon oak that the regular bottling made the more favorable impression. Like both bottles, but the Napa has the core of pure fruit that comes on like a cherry infusion from Smuckers. Had fun, took The Ch Montelena,Pahlmeyer, Penfolds Bins 389 and 707 tha I`ll report on later. Don`t this remind you of a jungle rash? Jes` when you think the itchings` gone, up that sucker comes agin`! winoweenie
