  Loads of fruit up front...vanilla and oak just a bit too much (for me)...a little hot.. fine tannins on the back...good Zin from Costco...I like the dry Creek heritage vine In a little better but would not turn this down...even better the second night

  Wonderful at this price point. Drinks as well as those at twice the price. Loaded with flavors of chocolate, coffee and berries. And, I must add that there’s a real amount of complexity too.

  Consumed over two evenings and much better on the second night. Very big and alcoholic. Fruit laden Zin with lots of cola and chocolate flavors. Some complexity too. Excellent value.

  Dark and jammy fruit with cedar notes. High alcohol stands out on the nose. The wine comes across as sweet on front end but has moderate tannins that dry out the back end.

  A very nice Zin for this price. Dry (not like a lot of jammy fruit bombs that many CA zin are) with good tannins and acidity but still the fruit you want in a zin. Need to buy again. Good value.
