Great value. Bought it after reading an article in Wine Spectator about highly rated wines that cost $25 or less. I recommend this for everyday drinking. Will be good for at least 2-3 more years.

76% Zinfandel, 19% Carignane, 3% Petite Sirah, and 2% Mataro from extremely sandy-loam soils (Delhi loam) around the bay area town of Oakley, in the north-east corner of Contra Costa County, California USA with vines from 25 to over 100 year-old. Proprietors: Matthew A. and Erin Cline Winemaker: Matthew A. Cline Label Art: Tamara D. Kontrimas
A(ccuray)=2: Med cherry/ruby. Brambly, fragrant Zin blend. B(alance)=2: Fresh and pure components in spite of high alcohol. C(omplexity)=2: Dark berries, pepper, earth. D(epth)=1: Vibrant mouthfeel. Average length and finish.
Wine Tally Score [2,2,2,1]= 7/10
Though a blend, still distinctively varietal.
