DTC only. Very dark red in the glass, medium full body. The nose and palate are distinctly Zin-based, but likely includes carignan, petite syrah, others. Dark, full real berries, pepper and spice from front to back, with a structured finish. Drank this alongside a CA Zin selling for a few dollars more (20), and this was clearly better. Easy drinking and drinking well now, I can imagine it getting more interesting over the next few years.
