This vintage is now post-prime. The nose was quite muted, the mid-palate was flat, and the finish was nonexistent. Glad it was my last bottle of this vintage.

I have enjoyed every bottle of this wine I have had. However, it is time to drink it up over the next year. As one other reviewer has noted, part of what makes this particular wine interesting is it is made by a winery that is not usually associated with zinfandels. Still fruit forward with a long finish. A little more elegant than many zins.....which probably reflects the winery.

Extremely soft, sweet mulled orange aromas, classic Zinfandel notes of dark ripe plum, nutmeg, cloves. Finish dry with pleasant nutty tannic finish. Smooth pleasant drinking wine

Same as notes from earlier this year......very good, but going over the hill. Mature and time to drink up. One bottle left.

This is entirely my fault. Waited way too long and this wine is no longer what it surely was at one point.
