From 3litre. In great shape continued to blossom over length of hours. I was impressed by the condition and taste. How many times do these turn out to be crap? I say 1 in 20 from my experience are great

This looked and drank like a 20yr old bottle. Hardly any bricking and fruit still present with of course the tertiary notes of leather and cigar. Nice treat!

This was actually the 1974 Reserve Cabernet and not the unfined, which is a different wine. Easily the best Mondavi Reserve from the 70's and I have had most of them. Wow.
