I'm not sure what they changed. Been drinking this zin for years. It use to be a bit jammy but still bright enough with interesting black fruit complexity. Now it's fat and flabby. Almost milky mouthfeel - not enough acidity to keep everything in balance and a funky medicinal note that I've never noticed before. Wish I hadn't committed to 2 cases of this stuff. Not sure what to do with the rest of it. Very disappointed in this vintage.
