  From 3L bought at winery many years ago. Drinking perfectly right now. Beautiful fruit on the nose and mouth. Perfectly balanced. Drinking at it's peak.

  This needs about 30-60 minutes to breathe before drinking.
  Delicious, black fruits & blueberries up front followed by a medium finish wrapped in vanilla oak flavors. Not too tannic. A nice Zin blend that is drinking well now.

  Smells of ripe blueberries with whisping green notes. High alcohol on the nose and taste. Strong tannins. Sweet. Not as balanced as the 2007.

  Deep, dark crimson. Masculine nose of conifer, oak, tobacco, pepper, and graphite complement black cherry, cranberry, and pomegranate fruit aromas. Fruity and fresh with a medium body and a smooth texture. Pronounced flavors of blackberries and blueberries segue into a beguiling back note of clove. The minerally finish is intensified with hints of chocolate and cinnamon. Develops additional aromas of earth, cedar, cigar box, and a touch of sulfur after a 2-hour decant. Very good to excellent.
