Quite good. Not familiar with Livermore Valley but impressed with this blend. Garnet color. Strawberry. Coco nibs. Red plum. Oak. Nice finish. Soft tannins. Probably best now but maybe another couple years at peak. I would buy a case for every day consumption.

To quote Borat “Wawa wewoo!” Amazing stuff at over a decade old. Has some bad luck with some aged bottles so didn’t want to let this one go too long. The soft tannins and long finish make this purely enjoyable right now. Wish I had a couple more to see where these keep going.

2015 Sean Minor Zinfandel H. Mynors

From producer website:
A beautiful migration of rich, ripe raspberries, blueberries and red currants cradled with black pepper and oak spices.
Our H. Mynors Zinfandel is deep ruby in color and displays aromas of cranberries, violets, brown sugar and vanilla. On the palate, it is rich and spicy, offering flavors of cranberries, black pepper and bright red fruit that integrate with hints of oak spices which coat the palate. The round soft tannins and sweet oak balance lead to a long and lingering finish.
Food Pairing Notes
Kansas slow cooked BBQ'd ribs and chocolate truffle cake
