Dunno if anyone noticed, but a ton of 1981 California Cabs went up on Winebid recently. Since I'm a 1981 baby, I couldn't help myself.
And boy, am I glad I did. The bottles came today, and the fills are all bottom neck or better, the corks are flush, the capsules spinning...whoever kept these babies for the last quarter century did a TREMENDOUS job.
So excited! I got the whole range: Mondavi Reserve, Chappelet, Montelena Estate, BV GdlT, Pine Ridge Rutherford, Inglenook Cask Reserve...and more. 9 bottles of 1981 Cal Cab, $260 total. Tremendous!
