April 28, 2024 - Fairly deep ruby colored, clear, not quite opaque.
Ripe darker berry flavored, a bit rustic and chunky in the finish, but a flavorful, fairly full bodied zin. 15.1% -

June 18, 2022 - Brick red in complexion. Chalk, leather, cherry and raspberry define the flavor. Dry with a delicate balance, medium high acidity and grippy tannins. Medium body with a good finish. Highly recommend this. Great bang for the buck.

March 13, 2022 - Pleasant nose of dark fruits but not a real "fruit forward" wine as the fruit is mixed with spice notes. Well structured tannins indicate it could improve with age. A solid and enjoyable old vine zinfandel now with potential for even more. A second bottle 3 months later was just as good.
