Mondavi Dinner



On October 14, 2003 twelve of us gathered at Laslow's Northwest restaurant in Portland. Sean Simons had invited all of us to enjoy a wonderful meal paired with the wines of Robert Mondavi Winery as well as some of their partner wineries.

The food was fabulous, the wines grand and the conversations lively!
