  OK for a less expensive wine. Jammy and dark.

  A nose of dark fruit and some spice, dark garnet in color. A medium to full bodied Zin, with black cherry, caramel, some vanilla and spice on finish, just had a bit of a weird overall taste. www.winelx.com

  Strong nose of caramelized brown sugar. Same flavors dominate a palate that otherwise has a nice assemblage of blueberry, blackberry, and cherry vanilla. Almost a madeira quality to it. Interesting flavors but too heavy-handed for my tastes.

  SO Zin. Fruity, jammy, but not cloying, which I appreciated. Should pair well with anything that has that grill/char/caramelized feature. Also a lot of fun with spicy dishes if you're still hankering for a red to go with it. Kind of a blackberry support to the cherry and flowers (I think geranium).

  Velvety balance of fruit, berry and alcohol. Vanilla bean, fruit, eucalyptus, minerality and wood flavors preceded a very thin strong blooded zin finish. This wine rocks!
