Cassis and blackberry with a touch of tobacco probably due to the age. A little loss of the fruit but certainly softer tannins than a few years ago. Still holds up nicely on its own, but would falter against a heavily spiced dish.

W mac and cheese. Dark color, real zin color., good oaky, chocolaty nose. Probably is losing some of its freshness so drink up. Fruit is still good but leaving relatively quickly. These are good zins as they are balanced and not fruity spicey bombs. Good wine.

Still has plenty of life left in it with just a slight brick color on the edges and with plenty of spice and dark fruit on the palette.

Very nice example of Zinfandel. Expressive fruity nose; some acidity. Round mouth feel and finish. I enjoyed it.
