Had after a big, unfiltered Cab.Sav which threw off the taste. Upon opening, turpentine nose. Then decanted, which helped some of the fruit to show. I believe that the original pretty spring flowerly nose has shut down for a year or two.

red fruit, floral and pine aromas, soft and elegant in the mouth, delivers perfectly balanced fruit and oak, chocolate covered cherries and raspberries, some smokiness, this zinfandel is a step ahead of many, really nice chocolatey flavors come out after an hour, creamy too, wonderful with a NY steak

Still very fruity, I think we could have held it for a few more years.
