Served with DD with Ahi tuna tower that we bought off the boat in Ventura that morning. Floral with strong apricot tastes, good mouth feel, viscous rich but not buttery. Almost sweet although admittedly I had tasted the '01 Mondavi Reserve when decanting not that long before. Great wine, would definitely buy again and age, held up beautifully although pushing the envelope on the recommended drinking window.

Golden color with viscus liquid. Aromas of peach, pear and oak. Fruit flavors have matured and softened. Full body and very nice lingering finish.
