  August 25, 2015 - Well stored, but even so I was surprised by how vibrant it was for it's age. Less opulently ripe than many Zins, it had a nice balance of fruit with a refreshing acidity. From reading other reviews not everybody likes that style, I'd buy it again.

  April 25, 2012 - Okay weeknight drinker. Wouldn't go out of my way to purchase again. Aromas of raspberry and spice. Taste hits you with a bit of raisin at first then mellows out to tart berries, light pepper and tannin. Finishes with ovewhelming acidity. Bit one sided with sour notes all around, but was okay with beef fajitas.

  January 23, 2012 - Tasty and with good fruit quite a bit thinner and less plush than most Zins. Didn't hold up all that well to marinated steak and spicy slaw either.
