  Wonderful right out of the bottle along with blackened catfish served creole style. Nice depth with food. Alone at the beginning I wondered if it might be a better dessert wine but it stood up very well with spicy food.

  I have really enjoyed this wine in the past -- this was the last of several bottles we've had in the past couple of years. I don't know if it was the order in which we drank this, but it was all fruit and not much else. Massive jammy, strawberry and red licorice flavors. Not bad in and of themselves, but I expect more nuance and depth from a Zin in general, and from this wine maker and vintage in the past. Not bad, but not everything I was hoping for either.

  Unbelievable raspberry, jammy nose and flavors. I wish there was more structure behind the fruit, but its a very tasty wine. Glad I have another bottle left!
