Interesting takes on this Zin and I have to say that it deserves to be controversial. This showed bright, slightly tart red fruit with relatively low ripeness. Fairly light-bodied but deceptive depth that needs your attention to really get. Flavor profile is indeed claret-like and bears little resemblance to its more fruit-forward brethren like Turley or Carlisle Zins. Very little oak influence. I appreciate the style and enjoyed this, but I was left a little wanting. I think this has the structure to develop and improve for many more years, so I'll probably hang onto my other bottles for at least a year or two before opening another. If scoring now, 88 - 89.
