Nice Bottle, no signs of age, still robust with a pungent nose. Some tannins present themselves but the wine is well integrated. Quite enjoyable actually, glad I have more bottles stashed away. I'll give them a few more years although it's drinking well right now. Probably has another 5-10 years of maturation left. No hurry to consume this one.

An absolutely beautiful Italian red blend that has a very long life yet ahead of it. Medium tannins, a few minutes in the glass may help, wonderful pairing as part of an Italian dinner. I see several hundred bottles yet in the Community inventory - so please rest assured you have lots of time left with this one! Wish we had another bottle. Suggesting 2030 end-date.

Sweet, jammy, alcoholic, and higher than usual tannins for a zin. Dark chocolate, spices, blackberries, and earth. Great at this age. Some fine sediment starting to show up.

Seghesio style upstages vineyard source here. Sweet, full bodied, rich, dark fruited, chocolate notes with medium acidity to keep it juicy. Enjoyable? Yes. Cocktail wine? Yes. Obvious vineyard source? No.
