  February 19, 2020 - This is drinking really nice right now. Soft tannins, really smooth mouthfeel. Great brambly-zin fruit and ends with a great spice note. It has fine sediment, so I’d recommend standing this up for a day and a slow decant. It is very good upon initial pour and gets slightly better over the next hour. It has plenty of life left with the Peak likely being 1-2 years out.

  December 5, 2018 - A pleasant quaff, but will be much better with more bottle time. 89 for now, with potential to increase with age.....

  December 30, 2017 - Deep color, very dark. Modest but deep nose of red fruit and spice. Lively initial mouth feel growing bigger and more exciting for 15 to 20 seconds. Then slowly waning. Not a typical Zin. Lighter and cool weather shows. Quite fruity. As previously suggested, jolly rancher., cherry,, licorish. Basically all over the place. Interesting and appealing.
