I haven't been fond of the Paso Robles Zins overall, but after finding this in the bottom of our wine fridge after we replaced a dead one we decided it was time for this to be opened. Actually came out pretty good. At 15.1% I was glad to see time was soft on this, nice tannins which felt basically fully integrated overall. There was something heavy feeling on the back palate but nothing off putting.
I would say hold for maybe another year or so/drink now as it's in a good spot.

medium ruby color with rasberry and light peppery nose; smooth medium bodied. red fruit and baking spice flavors. Drinking nicely now.
