Screw the anti-flavor elite. This is a tasty wine from a historic old growth vineyard in Paso that will only get better with time. Classic Paso palate of ripe fruit but given some air time it turns into a rich but balanced big wine, with plenty of spice, acidity and tannins to match the fruit. Baby killers shouldn't complain.

Fruit bomb explosion. Tastes like a headache in waiting. I suppose there's accents of chocolate in there, but you really have to search past the fruit to find them.

Rich fruity zin compared to the Ridge Lytton Springs. Tasted more like a Turley. Nice texture and good spice. Everyone enjoyed it. Hides the 14.5abv well.

Overripe and hot. Quickly spit out. About as pleasant as someone bumping into me and stepping on my foot.
