Sound cork. Clear and surprisingly transparent red--would have guessed Barolo or Pinot Noir. A bit of chemical on the nose initially. Flavors deliver fairly round fruit back up by a vibrant texture. Nice bottle.

Rich, aromatic, good structure, long finish. Unless the previous posts aren't from California Zin fans, I find the low ratings baffling. At $28, it's not the best QPR I've had recently in a Zin, but it's absolutely satisfying for the price.

Not a classic Zin. No spice.

Spicey yet subdued Zin. Not over the top with brambly fuits. A little pricey for the quality.
