Friday, November 2, 2018 - Sad that I never noted this wine until now, 10 days after consumption. This is a wonderful wine (90+) of such elegance and breadth as to encourage comparisons with fine mid-weight Burgundies. It was lifted and complex and the Zin at the core of it was weightless and perfectly ripe.

Sadder still that a clerk at a solid wine shop had recommended this to me as I added to couple bottles to those I'd selected myself. I now see that it was priced at $24 (750ml). Based on how good it was, I searched again for it and have concluded that the retailer had likely flipped the "4" and the "2", handing me an unintended bargain!
