On day 2 here. Stored overnight on the countertop at about 71 degrees. Good fruit character and definitey jammy, though less so than last night. Slickness comes through a bit more, ending with some fruit on the finish. This could cellar a while longer, but drinking well now (better with some air).

Same as last note. Jammy and lacking some of the varietal character I love in Zins from other regions. A good wine, but definitely not worth the Napa premium.

This was a nice year. These wines would have been in the barrel during the horrific Tubbs fire of 2017. This has aged nicely and probably has more time left, but why wait.

Delicious, elegant wine. Had less of typical bramble-ness. On the second night, it became more diffuse and less focused. Still was a fine bottle.

A little spicy, a little jammy. Medium body. Medium length finish. Pretty enjoyable overall.
