A fine vintage: Peter Mondavi, Sr.

Drink wine, climb stairs, live forever. Or at least be remarkably spry at age 97.

Check out this fun clip showing California wine pioneer Peter Mondavi Sr. taking his daily walk to the office. Two flights and he can still make conversation.

People, I am telling you, I have climbed those stairs and I was wheezing like a steam train. And while I am extremely old, I am not yet in my 90s.

I may need to drink more wine.

Cheers, geriatrically.
