    December 10, 2021 - Consumed informally and enjoyed greatly. Not tired at all from my cellar

    March 14, 2021 - I fear this might be past it, but have two more and am hopeful this was an odd bottle. Very fruity but flat about an hour after opening, through the evening and the next evening.

  • rldixon Likes this wine: 92 points

    February 9, 2021 - A beautiful Zin example. Deep notes of cherry and currant, modest pepper, long finish.

  • Rhwinetracker Likes this wine:

    February 9, 2021 - Drank with dry rub ribs for the Super Bowl - excellent.

  • Ed B wrote: flawed

    October 24, 2020 - PnP and drank over 3 hours. Nearly opaque ruby/black. Huge nose that lingered throughout. Opened with earth and tangy, featuring big cherry with hints of raspberries. Good spice. Long, complex finish. Mellowed over several iterations, but spice and long finish remained.

    3 hours later, nose and color the same. Earthy raspberry with tart (but big) cheery hints, and huge spice.
