November 26, 2015 - Brought to friend's house for Thanksgiving...medium to dark garnet with little sign of age. Nose has some oak initially along with jammy black fruit and some milk chocolate. On the palate you get both some raspberry and blackberry, along with black cherry and some spicy pepper elements. easy drinking and nicely textured. Very good with Turkey and Roasted Pork both.

May 30, 2015 - Moderate to dark Crimson. Nice fruity and spices nose with vanilla, black fruit jam and a touch of spice. Smooth mouth feel with a touch of acidity/tannin. Just a slight hint of alcohol. Old school fruity zin with great balance. Not remarkable but solid and great with food.

November 24, 2011 - Very nice nose of plum jam, modest alcohol forward fruit. Cherry, plum and boysenberry on the palate with a very soft glycerine mouth feel. It went very well with pork roast, and braised short ribs equally well. Pretty much coming into its own, it will last a while longer but is drinking well now. Stood up to wines costimg 2-3 times as much including a 1988 Rhone.

September 10, 2009 - Good, but not very good; full bodied with a somewhat flat finish; some complexity, but not much; if there was ever any fruit in this bottle, it's gone now; underwhelming if you are expecting a wine experience when tasting.
