Second of three purchased, and I hope there's one more left. First consumed in '11 and now just what I'd hope for in a Zin with a few years on it. Looking forward to the last in a few more. A steal from Costco for under $9.

Some time in bottle has made this wine quite nice. THe wine is a medium rose red and has a nose of spicy cherry. The flavor is a nice spiced , dusty cherry and maybe a bit of stawberry. The finish is long sweet yet dry with medium and smooth tannin. After 5 days in the bottle it was still nice but had just a tad on "old wine flavor--- drink your 08 in the next year or so!!!

Medium body with hints of blackberry. Not an over-the-top Zin; decent flavors.

Has held up well. Smooth, bit of strawberry, fruit, dry, but not too dry. Mild tannins.

Blackberries, currants, black pepper flavors with a somewhat heavy alcohol finish.
