7/7/2012 - Cmhaggar wrote: 86 points- Purple color with medium forming legs and aromas of blackberry and raspberry. It's unbalanced and has flavours of blackberry, raspberry and black pepper with a light/medium body. Linear texture with a short finish. |

For that price it was a great little wine for sitting on the deck with my girl friends- nothing fancy or spectacular, but very good nonetheless. |

1/11/2013 - YWG Wine Guy Likes this wine: 87 pointsHad a taste far from home, and likely can't get this in Manitoba. An unexpected style for a Zin, but was nice and oddly intriguing. Nose was hair on the port-like side, some dark stewed berries and other fruit. Perhaps a hint of smoke. Palate is medium bodied, smooth quality with some heat/light spice. The fruit is on tart side and again is darker, baked pie like in quality, without being sweet. The finish fades fairly fast on palate, and doesn't get anymore complex, but nice enough. Is good match on its own, and with variety of more complex food. |
