Do you know the old baseball criticism: 'good hit, no field'? This wine has 'good taste, no finish'. Very nice and silky smooth palate of rose, cherry, and strawberry -- wonderful in the mouth -- and then falls off completely. Hadn't experienced such a sharp difference before. It seemed to get better 7 - 8 hours after decanting. I will open the last bottle for 12 or more.

A nice bold Zin. It is getting more spicy as time goes on, but I would say drink up as it's hard to think that this would continue to age gracefully.

Strong berry with some spice overtones. Great wine for the price. Typical California Zin. Liked it a lot

Delicious. Bursting with raspberry and spiciness. Nice body.
