this wine is not a typical pride. decanted 2 hours. tart cherry and blueberry with lots of oak. left the other half of the bottle for the next day. Definitely not one of our favorite Pride wines.

Drank side by side with the 2016 Mt Veeder. This was clearly our favorite. Drinking beautifully right now. Dark fruits, integrated tannins.

Double decanted. Nose was initially like medicinal cherry cough syrup but this quickly dissipated. Young but good structure. Great value

This Zin is BIG and bold. Did I say big. As expected from Venge, concentrated dark berry fruit and oak come on strong. Stylistically very different from the Carlisle Zin we opened previously.

had to try one out of the gate and surprisingly approachable this young. Not as big of fruit as I have come to expect from Venge. very nice wine. We will hold on drinking more until well into 2022 and beyond.

such a fun night to do side by side with I'm listening. This one is clone 334 which was more refined and feminine in style. initially we gravitated to its sibling but as the night progressed this was our favorite of the pair.

it was fun to do the tasting side by side. I'm listening clone 169 came out of the gate as our favorite initially. Bold and masculine. dark fruits. As the evening went on we liked them both but its sibling clone 334 was our favorite.
