Have about six bottles each of the '90 and '91 Private Reserves. Popped a '90 tonight. Can't imagine it getting any better. Very nice.

Chef--

Any recent experience with the 1999 Private Reserve? I have one in the drinking queue, but might pull it out of line if it would benefit from more time.

Sorry, that's a vintage I've not experienced.

Did they change the name and add the word "Private"?

It used to be just "Mondavi Reserve", correct?

Opened a '91 last night. Liked it even better. Had it with Great Northern bean soup with ham hocks.
