Mission log 2022, drinking wine from the year I graduated high school. Loads of tannins and strung tight for a 23 year old zin. Heidi Barrett killing it like always for the long term. Most zone I’ve had at the 20 year mark start to turn into a port like style. Not this zin, can’t wait to compare to the 2000 and 2001 in the vertical I have.

Hot garbage, such a waste of RRV grapes. I should of known better when I pick up this bottle based on the name and label. If a wine maker over compensates with marketing, your wine is going to be sh*t.

For an average retail of $50 I don’t believe this is a great or even good wine, mediocre at best. If you cut through the BS of $20 worth of wine in a $100 bottle, it still taste like $20 worth of wine !!!

I suggest you examine www.Howellmountain.org where you can taste on November 5, thirty different wineries. The association has 4/5 tasting per year in Northern California and others throughout the USA. Their tastings feature the flagship wines of each winery which is why I attend 3/4 events per year.
