This has turned into a beautiful, elegant wine with pure fruit, resolved tannins, and almost Cabernet like secondary flavors of tobacco and cedar that hide the alcohol so well. Along with Carlisle, this is the crème de la crème of zin. Excellent!

Similar notes to others on this wine. Is this wine ripe and spicy and big fruits? Absolutely! Compared to other zins I have had this one really shines and the 16.4% alcohol really doesn’t show much at all. Drink this now or over the next 5-10 years.

Easily the best zin I’ve ever had. Paired great with Hutchins BBQ!
