When I first opened the bottle the nose was musty and on the palate there was little fruit with a medicine, high alcohol finish. After 15-20 minutes the mus was gone and the wine became very fruit forward, almost jammy, with a little tartness on the finish. Matched well with turkey, sweet potatoe casserole and cranberry. Not the best zin but worked well with the meal.

Sweet, syrupy, and oaky. Tough to drink, glad this is my last bottle.

Ripe, slight sweet and oaky. Seemed to taste better with pizza.

Another soft, syrupy example. Only 3 more bottles to kill this case...

Soft, syrupy. Ripe fruit, but drowned in caramel-like oak.
