2/4/2016 - Inlytes Likes this wine: 88 pointsReceived this past December as host gift Plenty of faint praise: undistinguished but non-offensive Cab Franc. Ready to drink now and for next 12-18 months. Crack open to drink with strong cheese and crackers mid week while clearing your DVR que. You'll neither be wowed nor disappointed. Typical dark fruit and vegetable scents and flavors. |

11/1/2014 - capacious Likes this wine: 90 pointsA good wine, albeit initially still way more on the fruity side than not, nothing particularly sophisticated or interesting. So, after a decade, not much has happened here, showing that the intent to produce wines that drink well young has worked, too well. |

10/6/2014 - capacious Likes this wine: 89 pointsSome secondary notes, nearing the final years of its time, needed an hour or two to fully open, then the main shortcoming was a somewhat short finish, a good food wine, and a good wine with chocolate |

7/2/2014 - juffer Likes this wine: 87 pointsDelivers what I expect from a zin in this (discounted WTSO) price range. Mostly cinnamon in the nose (only slight raspberry). Rich mid palate, good finish. I saw some others commenting on thinness and lack of spice. My sample is not at all thin or lacking in spice. Lack of complexity I agree with. |
