We had been drinking these wines young, finding them overpowering. At age 10 this was still youngish, but the edges were softer. On day two it was magnificent.

After 10 years, this bottle held its own, those mountain zin grapes pack a punch. The wine retained a good combination of spice and dried dark fruit. Sad that it was my last bottle.

Surprising spicy for a Zin. Good tannin structure even after 10 years. Very interesting funky truffle undertone.
