Well, I was going to look for a RRV PN for Judy's birthday dinner, but I came across this one and chose it instead.

If memory serves, Mink Vyd. is way over on the east side of the city of Napa, so still gets some San Pablo influence (if anyone really cares). Planted with 115 and Swan clones. It was really nice right out of the bottle with lots of spice and blackberry nose. More spice (cinnamon?) and blackberry in the mouth along with chocolate and black cherry. Yum!! Probably another year or so from its prime, but this was the only bottle we had. It was a Christmas present from our son a few years ago, so don't know the cost.

Another case of "post-drinking-last-bottle-why-dint-I-buy-more" blues as recorded by BB King. WW [img]http://wines.com/ubb/wink.gif[/img]
