  Fully mature indeed and very nice to drink although nothing special or thrilling.

  Like a great song
  A great sip brings back memories
  I started collecting wine in 1978
  Mondavi was the goto gold standard in my collection to compare with others
  This wine now, 41 years later, evokes the same solid texture, character, fruit, and pallette pleasure as it did and has for the past 40 years
  Still a babe in the woods
  Thanks for the memories and reminder of how wine can be
  An amazing presentation at birth and still now
  Bravo!

  Simply fantastic!
  
  Quite surprise how well it aged. Opened this bottle for a friend who turned 40. It was delicious. Nose dark chocolate and coffee, tasted cherry. Quality was impressive for 40 years old.
  
  Enjoy every second, Will try to find other bottles from that vintage.

  Opened for a great friends 40th; absolutely classic aged Napa cab; nose with still redolent cassis and dried blueberry, tobacco, fresh loam, dried violet, some hints of thyme. The palate shows still just a hint of tannin, but is really just suave and delivers nice dark fruit and earthy tobacco notes. Almost certainly past peak, but still drinking really well if you appreciate older wine nuances. I found this lovely and better than anticipated.
