Big jammy fruit forward. No tannins. PNP. Blackberry, dark cherry, very ripe. Seriously luscious. No spice although I usually prefer this kick. Perfectly in window now. The lady loved it first taste. So, that works for me!

Yet another bottle of Outpost Zin that can easily be mistaken for a Napa cab. Enjoyed with HMC the 2nd night after being coravined the first night. Dense, heavy, dark red and black fruited. Big weight in the mouth, again very cab like.....better with an hour or two of air. But I can't score it higher because it's more indicative of cab than zin.....maybe too strong a year for Outpost and their zin?

We had this wine with meat’s lovers pizza and it was a great pairing. The wine is big and yummy without crossing the line on sweetness.

Big rich zin, fabulous balance and fruit. No reason to hold
I didn’t notice any smoke taint, though one person at the table did complain of some

Big and mature. Howell Mt does produce a different Zin. Not spicy but more like a cab. Great stuff.
