October 10, 2021 - Very well done Zin. Bramble, plum, berry notes on nose. Palate gets dark chocolate, pepper, dark berries. Oak rounds out the palate with a long smooth finish, tannins are mild but you don't loose finish. Ran through the aerator, and then let sit for 20min.. Tasted very delicous!

February 18, 2021 - Classic CA Zin with typical bramble nose with underlying berry notes. On the palate, nice balance of fruit, earth and hints of spice. Oak is very well integrated; it adds some roundness, maybe hints of leather. Tannins mostly absent though not flabby at all. I need more! Does seem to be quite high in alcohol.
