Zin Thing 2009: Very pleasant and a favority of several tasters. Nice nose. Structure and Depth of flavors may be impacted by the young age of the vines so will be interesting to taste future vintages.

Solid Zin. Good darker briar fruits mixed with nice peppery flavor. Some oak and vanilla near the end...and a bit of an ashen taste left over after drinking the bottle.
