Description
**April 2022 UPDATE**
Mondavi's first crop of crias (on our farm) are growing up fast. We have 3 GIRLS and a BOY!!! All have very nice fleece!!
Female #1, Mondavi's Premiere, is dark brown/bay black with jet black ears and nose. Her dam is Opal, sired by Kobe of PVA. This little one has a very nice pedigree for sure!!
Female #2, Xlite Legacy, medium fawn, also comes from a very nice pedigree...she is a Maxx MacGyver granddaughter out of Bijou Maxx's Kimberxlite!
Female #3, Meiomi by Mondavi, is a pinto beauty! Her fleece is white, medium fawn, dark brown and bay black. This beautiful girl is one to watch for sure. Her fleece is superb and carries her wonderful traits consistently across each color in her blanket.
Male cria, Beringer, looks VERY nice with LOTS of fleece. He started out medium fawn, but is now changing to a gray color!! Modern rose grey perhaps?? He has an impressive pedigree on both sides and will definately be one to watch!
We just cant' say enough about how impressed we are with Mondavi's first offspring!
________________________________________
Mondavi is a hidden gem! He has the outstanding genetics of sire, Kahuna, on one side of his pedigree and 8X Champion Sierra Bonita's Sirius Black on his dam's side. Mondavi has very nice conformation and great density... he sheared a 6 pound blanket at 7 years old!! Although he had a limited show career (which we just recently discovered!), he DID win a blue ribbon as a mature male--almost 4 years old! Even without a Championship banner, Mondavi is a champion quality herdsire in our book! He has been under-utilized as a breeding male and we are so excited to change that! We used Mondavi with one female in 2020 and are planning more in 2021.
**As described by previous owners**
In recent years we have crossed our elite full Peruvian colored breeding stock with the Kahuna line, in an effort to produce the best of both. Kahuna's dominant white genetics rarely result in offspring with as much color. As of January 2014, "Mondavi" is the darkest Kahuna offspring to date.
Given Kahuna's status as the elite light Suri herdsire in the industry, being able to build a marketing campaign around his darkest offspring is something most elite Suri breeders would see as a rare and treasured opportunity.
This boy is loaded with potential!!

We are very excited to bring Mondavi to Honey Maple Farms as a herdsire. As you can see from his photos and histogram, he had very nice fleece as a young male. With his pedigree and genetic potential, we are hoping for good things from this guy!
2021 brought us 4 crias from Mondavi and WOW are we pleased with the results! All have gorgeous luster, density and nice conformation. These crias well help us elevate our breeding program..no doubt.
