Took about an hour of air to get to the happy place but thereafter the nose, mouth, depth, acid, balance and finish were all very pleasant. A softer aged zin at this point but lots to like.

A nice zin and holding up well considering the vintage. Red fruits and earth on the nose. Medium bodied, good bright fruit, orange rind and a hint of pepper with Asian spice. Nice acidity on the finish. Food friendly. Well made wine. Drink up.

popped and poured, definitely needed some air. let sit for an hour, nice hit of Bramble, Zin spice not sure the end date window is accurate here, this wine has time. But it will not be a young fresh Zin it will be a beautifully aged Zin

Lots of life left in this big luscious wine. Delicious red fruit and long finish. Great balance. Glad I'm on Mike's customer list!
