May 28, 2013 - A robust Zinfandel from the region’s signature 50-100 year-old vines. Jammy with raspberry, milk chocolate and mocha flavors, soft tannins and a supple mouth feel.
January 7, 2013 - drinking at its peak. Lots of cherry and cranberry fruit, spice, leather and a touch of oak
September 9, 2012 - - Brick color and aromas of blackberry and has flavours of blackberry with a medium finish.
May 6, 2012 - Did not stand out as an exceptional Lodi Wine like many others that could be. I wouldn't dismiss the wine, it has a fruity beginning but okay finish. Not a bad wine for a 10 to 15 range. Good.
April 25, 2012 - Nothing special, a good cheap wine. I enjoyed it but probably will not buy again.
December 29, 2011 - Way too sweet and syrupy. Found it very unpleasant.
July 8, 2011 - Bvwilliams brought this bottle over to toast new Tayloe Wine Room.
May 27, 2011 - - Purple color and aromas of cherry, cedar, mint and tobacco. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of cherry, blackberry, banana, cedar and vanilla with a medium/full body. Linear texture with a medium finish - A little less complicated than I remember previously. The nose is nice and fruity, woody up front with a slight minty freshness. Taste is cherry, sweet and jammy with a hint of some dark fruits. The mouth feel leaves much to be desired as there is an underwhelming presence of tannins and no biting acidity. Overall this is a good wind that might pair well with some salty cheese but would lack the spice/body that might pair well a steak dinner. Better left to just for sitting back with a glass of wine.
May 27, 2011 - - Purple color and aromas of cherry, tobacco and cedar. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of cherry, banana and blackberry with a medium/full body. Narrow texture with a medium finish.
December 27, 2010 - Very fruity. Good for beginner wine drinkers. A fun wine to be enjoyed now, but may need to sit for some time to be fully enjoyed.
