• Bill Martin Does not like this wine: 83 points

  October 1, 2017 - Quite surprising to me. Had a nose I associate with old wines that my guest described as "musty." To be expected, I guess. It was properly cellared since I bought it at the winery, but Zins aren't known for aging. The cork was still good. The surprise came on the palate. Lots of Zin fruit, good acid, not much else. The fruitiness got even stronger with air exposure. After about an hour, except for the acid, to me it was a typical overly fruity characterless California Zin. 34 years old and getting younger with time in the glass. Wierd.
