  Decanted for over one hour. Beautiful cedar and bramble notes on the nose. Balanced oak and dark currants on entry leading to a long and spicy finish. Another great expression of Zin by Seghesio!

  Time does this Zin justice..... After a hour + decant, it was very smooth with typical black cherry, licorice and a long spicy finish but so much more refined than other Rockplie Zins. The '10 is phenominal, and having bought the last of their remaining inventory, I asked Seghesio to search their cellar for any "off the grid". It's that good.

  Who would've thought a 5 year old zinfandel needed more time? That said, this was wonderful.

  Same notes as 2/11/14. This really needs LOTS of air - decanting/breathing, and you will be amply rewarded versus shortchanged if you pop and pour.

  I'm not going to rate this because we didn't do it justice by decanting, the next day it had opened up and was a much better wine.
  This wine is still young and deserves the whole decanting treatment and maybe more, let it age to 2016.
