Served with home made chili, this was about the perfect accompaniment. Supple black and red fruits mingled with slight briary elements and a touch of youthful woody notes were all held together by a seamless structure. There was no trace of heat despite hte 14.6% stated alcohol. It reminded me a lot of Ridge but without buttery oak element. Fantastic zin!

Was in a Zin mode - Notes consistent with previous tasting - Easy to drink and opens up over a couple of hours. Very good.

Earthy with dark fruit and pepper- layers of flavors - complex - the finish will improve with a little more time in the bottle.
