April 7, 2013 - A bit of a mercy ranking, maybe, but still a very good wine, holding up well over time, and nicely complimenting a good meal. That's what we bought it for, we have more left...

April 9, 2009 - Holding up well, drinks smoothly from first to last glass, very solid Zin - nothing truly outstanding, but still a great value.
January 23, 2009 - Very clear garnet color, not giving up much aromatically after aerating, just got a little dark fruit and white pepper. Initial taste on the palate reveals well-integrated heat and mild cherry-plum flavors. Really quite elegant, perhaps showing of its origins in Dry Creek Valley. Medium length finish. Not much robustness as I expect to find in a Zin, but its pleasant enough.
September 1, 2008 - Enjoyable wine. Some pepper, hint of sweetness, some fruitiness - maybe cherry. Long finish. It does have a diminutive noise. It is very drinkable right now.
