Aged well, though cork chattered at opening. One more proof that California USA wines can age well. Leathery, fruit forward, medium body cab, deep burgundy tone, nice fingers.....all around, very nice red.

Slightly light for a Zin, but considering a 13 year store, pretty nice. Aged well, smooth, fruity and well rounded. Cork was a bit dry. The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are fast. There is light sediment in the bottle. It smells like blackberry, red currant and clove. It tastes like blackberry and red currant. The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity.

Well rounded, fruity and leathery notes. Bit of a dry cork but not comprised. Great paring with a big steak.
