August 7, 2015 - A little brown and pruny at first. Those flavors dissipated over time and it turned fruity and tasty. Time to drink this

March 1, 2013 - Aromas of red berries and dried figs. Full body with black fruit and more figs. Well balanced acidity and soft tannins.

November 14, 2012 - Medium to full body. Blackberry and a little baking spice. Smooth from start to finish.

November 8, 2012 - Well balanced "Zin" with good fruit and acidity. Easy to pair with food as it is relaxed with that good acidity. Notes of bright red berries and a hint of red licorice.
