94 Stags Leap Napa

Had this Tues nite on my return. What a lovely bottle. Liquid satin. A racy, floral nose with hints of violets( and when you see clouds ) .I digress. This wine Peakith! Has enough structure to go another 4-5 years but anyone with this in their stash best start looking for the Reidel. WW

Found 2 of these suckers hiding way back in the cellar so opened one for lunch yesterday. Still humming along swimmingly with still no sign of fading. The nose and mouthfeel are pretty special. Sweet cherry notes with flowers(roses and violets) jumping from the glass and hits the tongue with emphasis. This bsby sure fooled the blazes out of me on its' staying power. Am taking the remaining bottle to the club Thursday foe our prayer meeting. Am in the midst of a gigantic replanting program. Have decided the flowers are history and putting in decorative cactus all over the homestead. Tremendously interesting plants with more diversity than I ever imagined. Bought bunches from our famous Desert Botannical Gardens annual sale. Will finish up on all but the big'uns today and theyard guys will have the pleasure of putting in the big pots Friday. So far have escaped with only two blood-letting incidents. WW

BRW and I killed the last of these dude-i-roonies at lunch today and IMHO this has made it into its' 2nd tenthie with flying colors. Liquid silk, killer mouthfeel and a solid 4+ lapper finish. Nice to know that a 22 buck bottle could handle this longivity. A really solid bottle that has held at peak far longer than I imagined. WW
