I was expecting less since we are late in drinking this wine, but it has matured well. Nose is slight fruit, taste is very good. Very slight tannin is left which is well balanced with good blackberry fruit. No bite, extremely smooth as you would imagine with a wine of its age. What a delightful surprise.

I would argue that Navarro wines offer the best value in the wine world today. This Zin packed a great acidity and fruit with out the big green and black pepper,went great with spaghetti. Order it if you can find it.

So good. Great out of the shoot. Faded over the course of 3 hours. No need to decant. Just pull the cork and drink.
