Very good bottle of wine for the money. Smooth drinking but still big bodied and bold and spicy like a good zin should be. Spicy oaky nose, beautiful crimson color, plum taste, and spicy finish.

Probably drank it too soon as it was a major fruit bomb out of the bottle and seemed quite immature. That said, it mellowed out tremendously after sitting out for a while and paired quite nicely with the spicy special meatloaf and applesauce I made for dinner.

Still terrible. I took one drink out of the bottle and turned all three that were left over to cooking duty.
