April 14, 2024 - Tried another earlier than planned. Not much different. I sense that a year or two will improve it. Certainly bring it together better.

February 2, 2024 - Good red fruit, but without the solid underlying backbone that better Zins have. Enough tannins to suggest more evolution of the plentiful fruit. A little disappointing, given the stellar reviews. Perhaps just in a dumb phase. I'll wait another six months before trying another bottle.
