Mushrooms, rich, woody spice, jammy dark red fruit, strawberry and chocolate with a long, clean finish and a silky, smooth mouthfeel. Almost pinot-like in its earthiness, but with lovely rich jammy, but not over the top fruit. I love this stuff.

This was a nice paring with pizza, and was better than the 2006 bottle of the same wine we had recently. This wine shows the promise of the Columbia Gorge for wines.

Columbia Gorge Tasting & 30 year old wines on my 30th birthday (Columbia Gorge and My House): Yeah, I'm not a Zin fan, but this is one of my highest scoring Zins ever, so many others would appreciate it still more than I did. It's a bit hot on the nose, showing funky dark fruits. It has a spicy finish and is very tasty. A bit cloying on the finish and remains on the palate 30 seconds later.
