  Revisiting an old friend, 3 hour decant, rich nose of dark fruit, flavors exhibit cassis, cedar, blackberry. Has aged quite nicely since my first bottle 13 (really?) years ago. Still shows lively fruit flavors. Really enjoyed this one.

  Still drinking beautifully, aromas of cassis and blackberry, light touch of oak, beautiful, clear deep red/garnet color with no bricking. A classic Napa Cabernet with palate of cassis, blackberry, graphite, and oak, all in balance on a medium+ weight frame. Just enough smooth, silky tannins to hold it all together on a medium+ finish. Elegant, straightforward Cab, in Mondavi’s restrained style, still fresh. One left in the cellar, probably will hold for another 6-12 months before it fades.

  Nothing like older Mondavi cabs, which tended to age gracefully on a "Bordeaux-like" trajectory, with secondary and tertiary characteristics coming to the forefront after time in the cellar.
  
  Instead, this vintage remains very linear, and not all that much different from my initial experience with it a decade ago. Sure, a little rounded out, rough edges gone. But other than that, this is essentially the same wine I drank back then. It's not a bad bottle of wine. My low score today reflects the lack of evolution.

  Really nice bottle for $20. Good fruit and acid balance. Drink or hold.
