  November 12, 2012 - A very bright and pleasing Zin. Loaded with dark fruit, not a fruit bomb. ZZ Top on the swirl. Had it with braised short ribs, a perfect compliment.

  March 6, 2010 - These are ready to drink now. With time the jam flavor of the Mayacamas softens. Still lots of good red fruit but going.

  February 21, 2010 - No decant needed. This is aging very nicely. Color is deep red with pink edges. Legs on the glass after swirling. Nose is red and dark fruit with just a hint of leather. On the palate, very nice balance of red fruit, tannins and a bit of heat. Excellent mouthfeel. I want to try my next bottle with a good steak, but it's great with cheese or by itself.

  November 28, 2009 - Another good bottle. This one was excellent with a belated turkey dinner, and I will have to remember this for next year's Turkey Day. Not nearly as much heat, otherwise consistent with notes for last bottle.

  November 26, 2009 - developing some bottle age character, deep, distinct, strong typical zinfandel aromas. Seps really knows how to make an age-worthy Cali zin!
