Freshly opened, it was deep rich and raisiny. Two hours in the decanter, and became incredibly smooth. Incredibly fruity, reminded me at times of a clean italian wine before i remembered that its a zin and the corresponding characteristics started to overwhelm my thoughts.

Popped and poured. Wonderful bright fruit from the start. Well balanced and smooth with a nice long finish. One of the favorites of the night.

Deep, sweet-fruit bouquet; then a rich, bitter balance enclosed by a circle of sweet, dark fruit with enjoyable intensities of cinnamon and chocolate.

So deep. Interesting and big; but may be veering off course. A little air helped but still I'm reluctant to hold the others too long.
