1998 Kelham, Silver Oak Napa, Scherrer, Dehlinger, & Miura

Close friend from Denver came in to play some golf and brought his lousy weather with him so yesterday we met at the new Scottsdale Sportsmans. Decided to clear out some 98s and all-in-all them dudes were showing beautifully. The Kelham Reserve was a newbie to me and then I found out it was their 1st release. 200+ cases and this premium Oakville property has some seriously good grapes. Having sold to B.V, Mondavi, and other players since the 70s' they had the stuff to make some serious juice and they used it. The only one of the line-up I really paid attention to I will give this hummer a solid 92. The only limper in the crowd was the S.O Napa which appeared tired and on the down-snort in an other-wise woowsie crowd. Had to hit the keyboard to control me dissapointment after the Old-F#%t Perry bogeyed the last two holes at Augusta. Back to the Telly and hopefully watch him gather up his shorts and win the play-off. WW

I was rooting for Perry on the final couple holes but was excited by Tiger and Phil earlier. I guess Jack Nicklaus retains the title of the oldest Master's champion (but not of all major golf tournaments.)

All-in-all a very exciting topurnament. Still was hoping the old-folks would come thru after Phil Phaltered. WW
