June 20, 2011 - Quite spectacular and complex considering the huge ABV (15.1) Rich layers of cooked berries, blueberries, cardamon and pepper, damp forest and all kinds oak notes. Did not feel the heat on this, it was well balanced, fruit forward yet structured.

October 19, 2009 - The finger nail polish remover smell has faded, and the delicious berries are shining through. It was finally reminiscent of when we barrel tasted this in 2003. Can't wait to have some more.

December 8, 2007 - We went in search of Rockpile Zins and found Mauritson. They were out of the 2002, but "if we were good" we could taste the 03 from the barrel. It was the best thing we drank all week! I've never bought a case of wine on futures before this. Full of berries and very smooth.
