I think this vintage was better earlier, or it may have just been me, but the fruit and richness I expected was missing, and even on day two, it was just more alcohol and sort of average. It wasn't bad, but not what I remembered. It's odd, I just looked back to see that I opened a bottle about a month ago and it was fine, so maybe just this bottle or me.

89.5. Good zin and one to keep stocked for a solid table wine that pairs with many foods. The wine looks purple colored. It smells like blueberry, cranberry, strawberry jam and black pepper and tastes of the same. Medium body, medium acidity. Really flavorful and easy to drink. Recommended.

Classic, raisin, nut and sweet spice nose. Ripe and structured palate; good weight with freshness to balance. Fruity, earthy spice finish.
4/5
