Good. Dark purple. Pop and pour: the wine was tight and hot. Two hours later: the wine smoothed out and lost its heat; think cherry cola meets blackberry jam. It is not the best example of a Dry Creek Valley zin, but it might be one of the best $10 examples. <Wow/Very Good/Good/Fair/Plonk>

Nothing too fancy. Fresh fruit on the nose. Very sweet, ripe berries on the palate. Not a long finish. While not bad, not my thing at all. I felt like I was drinking a glass of store bought grape juice. But my girlfriend loved it.

Hella tannic, super concentrated. I regret having opened it what was apparently several years too early.

Good. A respectable Dry Creek Valley zin for $10. Blackberry jam and vanilla that goes well with grilled burgers. <Wow/Very Good/Good/Fair/Plonk>
