  Purchased via the Ravenswood library release. To me, this felt fully resolved. I double decanted this for sediment, then had it open for a couple hours without any clear drop off. This was red-fruited with a nice dusty note. Around 15% ABV, I think, but carried it well.

  Cold storage, no brick edge, drinking just perfectly, lots of fruit, great balance, wish I had more. Drank with a well aged New York.

  Extremely good storage, very surprising with fruit galore and very well balanced. It far exceeded expectations.

  Drank with dinner and good company, oh and jet lag. Not subtle, but still has fruit. Rather than talk about the secondary sublte aromas I'd say that it came across as dark berry and a strong tannic core that makes me seriously doubt the amount of Zin in this wine. Its a 90 and its breaking down like an petite or cab might. Though its not green at all.

  This monster zin held up very well, no detailed tasting notes.
  If you are opening one of these, Drink upon opening and consume within 45 minutes. The wine did go over after about an hour of beeing open.
