Limited notes, over dinner. Rich and concentrated, ripe red and dark fruit, smoky, spicy on the nose. On the palate again rather bold and ripe with smooth tannins and good acidity. 89-91?

A nice drop, offering smooth flavours and a great "bang to buck" ratio. Quite "toppy" on the flavour, high, sharp notes in a relatively long taste - needed a couple of hours breathing, but offers subtle flavours not often found in Zin at this price bracket. A decent enough glugger. Cheers...

Lots of dried spices to the nose, none of the jamminess of Zinfandel. Alcohol level on the label was 15% but did not feel 15% at all. Also the body was not very full, only medium low body and intensity. With healthy acidity and spicy finish. Surprising!

High level of alcohol on the nose mixed with some red fruits. Tastes of plum, raisin and cedar, but hard to drink on its own. Might be more food friendly.
