Still going strong. Extremely fruit forward and rich, with good structure. Opened, decanted and drunk, which seemed right. Didn’t change much over the ensuing hour.

Nose of mushroom, roasted meat, and cherry fruit, same on the palate, big body, how this was mixed in with the 2015 in my cellar-I don't know, no heat, no big taste, no mouth filling fruit, but a nice oldie, went well with the meaty pizza, and a long, long finish.

Nose of pot roast, mushroom, cherry, and sage, same on the palate, big body, delicious, past its prime but hanging in there, great Zinfandel, long, long finish.

Agree with Nothung. Sweet dark fruit, somewhat candied, great with thanksgiving turkey and the sides…

What a delight, I was expecting this wine to be on the decline but It was not the case at all. Mature and ready to drink but delicious
