June 9, 2018 - Hezi's 65th Birthday Celebration (Chevalier Fine Wines - Chicago IL): Small glass, brief note. Wine's incredible ripeness and its maturity combine to make this flabby and tired.

December 25, 2016 - This wine is so powerful! Very strong aroma with high alcohol content. If you see this 1996 Zin Hayne Vineyard, just grab it and you'll be happy you bought. I would buy it again and again for the price I bought.

August 10, 2015 - Nose: licorice, raisin, liquid minerals.
Mouth: brambly; rich, great length; clearly high EtOH, but the flavors fully coextensive with the alcohol, conferring excellent balance and symmetry [cf 09 Hayne with EtOH much broader and expansive than the narrow flavor profile]; perfect and very structural acidity.
Zin tasting: all blind, all wines purchased on release with ideal storage; my ranking followed by group ranking in brackets:
Hayne '96 [2], Dickerson '94 [8], Jimsomare '94 [3], Jackass Vineyard '09 [6], Jackass Vineyard '96 [7], Hayne '09 [1], Jimsomare '12 [4], Dickerson '12 [5] -
