Ran through a Vinturi into a decanter. The nose was full of aromas of vanilla, butter, and red berry fruit. Palate was medium-bodied, smooth with soft spicy flavors. A different representation of Zinfandel, not over done. The alcohol is high, but this was not hot at all. Balanced, with a full lingering finish. A very enjoyable wine especially with a rosemary crusted pork loin. Much better than my first bottle. 50,5,14,16,6=91

Decanted for an hour. Nose of vanilla, spices, berries. Palate was spicy with hints or red fruit. All the flavors came to together nicely leading to a bold lingering finish. Not the typical fruit bomb Zin. 50,5,12,15,6=88

Like most Hendry wines, a straightforward expression of the grape, but this one had a little more personality. Agree this is the lighter side of zin.

Very nice. Suprisingly light given the 15.6% alcohol content. Not think and heavy like many Zin's but almost has a claret like finesse.

Really nice wine with blackberries, floral, spice, oak and plum. Concentrated wine with medium tannins. Well done!
