September 14, 2019 - Opened and poured. Braised, dark and full body. Bramble, some heat, plum, prune and raisin on the nose. Potent, puckering and jammy.

October 8, 2017 - This is rich and thick. A bit raisiny with an alcohol bite. Probably a little long in the tooth but still a powerful wine

October 16, 2015 - An excellent wine. Alcoholic heat took just a few minutes to blow over, leaving rich fruit. Excellent with smoked prime rib!

November 2, 2012 - Extremely well-balanced zin with good depth and complexity. Nice balance of fruit and spice and very round mouth feel. Great finish. Was great on day 1,2, and 3.
