May 4, 2016 - This is drinking very well. Still lots of fruit - berries and cassis. Good acidity with minimal tannins. The age has softened nicely, not sure it will improve much more.

November 21, 2015 - What a wine. Unbelievably well balanced. Rich, oak, cedar, vanilla, tart/ripe berries, minerals/stone/graphite. Amazing complexity.

November 9, 2015 - Black currants and stewed blackberries on the nose - earthy. Full dark fruit flavours. Still some light tannins. Full bodied and a bit boozy (14.7%) so maybe having more fun than I should be for a Monday :). Totally enjoyable. Drink now.

October 11, 2014 - Drunk tonight with chicken enchiladas and black beans. Sappy, tart red berry fruit and pencil lead that is packaged in a sleek, taut package. Medium bodied and not in the least bit jammy, it shows all those characteristics that I value in Zin with none of the excesses so fashionable these days.

July 25, 2014 - Very nice fruit with out significant jamminess. As with the other 2 zins of the night it finished with a chalkiness.
