Love the flavor Margaret got out of this. I really don't like the zins at Passalacqua. In my opinion it is not what they do well as a general statement. But they sure can make a cab. This is an exception. The probative 2009 and forward (based on barrel tasting last few years) are really really well done. The flavor on this is great. It rivals the 2008 Viti Della Nebia zin from RRV that she made. Really drinking so nicely. Always exciting when a 35 dollar primitivo/zin works in your favor. Loved it.
