I've participated in the drinking of at least 6 bottles of this 2020 vintage in 2022 to summer of 2023 and they were absolutely delicious 94+ points, if you love this type of Zin blend, which I do. But, we did a PnP over the weekend and it wasnt the same OMG tasting. Maybe it's closed down for a bit? Don't get me wrong, it was still great drinking, but not like I remember for the first 6 bottles. I thought over the course of the night with some air it would improve. I will wait to open other bottles. From the tasting note assistant, this is what stood out to me for this most recent bottle: forest floor, mineral, oak, black pepper and alcohol/hot.

PnP. The 2016 is drinking nicely now. Well integrated. Delicious.
I agree with MAJEKU's review.

Delicious! PnP, no sediment. Drank with cousin Jeff and wife while dining on seafood paella. Fruit-forward, smooth tannins. Well integrated.
