This is a rich, smooth, full bodied Zin. Very good, complex. Cocoa, oak, graphite, ripe muddled berries, just a lot of well balanced complexity. A classic higher quality Zin.

Not too bad, a little better than previous bottles (some age has helped). PnP, some brambly notes and decent fruit. A little alcohol on the finish, which might be addressed with a brief decant. Some mild to medium tannins on the backend. This wine would probably be good for another 3-4 years. Drink now or hold. GOOD.
