    August 26, 2020 - Color - Dark Garnet with ruby red edges
    Nose - Dark berries, Black Cherry, Raspberry
    Palate - Medium Jammy, Black Cherry, Blackberries, Raspberry, smooth tannins with a long finish. Farmhouse is probably my favorite, so far, of Dry Creeks single vineyard Zins. 24 hours later it has smoothed out, the tannins are gone and it is like drinking a very fruit forward juice, very pleasing.
