  good nose of tanning leather, forest, and fruit, smooth taste profile that developed over the evening. Good qpr for everyday drinking and built for our grilled steaks with chimmichurri sauce and grilled vegetables.
  
  Would add more at this price....still good value with Zinfandels.

  Typical deeply ruby colored Zin. Closed up in the nose-a hint of spice. Muted flavors also, surprising for a single vineyard wine, I expected more. Soft tannins, almost flabby. Good fruit. short finish.

  A bit thin compared to 2008 but still drank well with food.
