  Sweet spices like allspice and coriander on the nose. Medium acidity and tannins, short finish. Would be better with food, a little boring by itself.

  Despite the mediocre appreciation conveyed in previous reviews of this wine, I'm rather impressed and had unanimously positive feedback when sharing this ready and happy drinker over dinner.
  
  It's not pretentiously intellectual. It's not annoyingly demanding hours of decant while the boring clock ticks. Simply lock and load, sit back and enjoy.
  
  Floral rose pot puri on the nose. Dark cherry at the front and sides with juicy syrah fruit through the middle.

  Four nights in Manhatten (Manhatten, NY): Tart black cherry, plum, some spice, bitter woody notes, that made this Zin a bit hard to swallow. Okay, but not going to be memorable. Drink soon!
