This is one of the quintessential California fruity, jammy Zins and even though we drank it well beyond its stated window, it delivered on its specification. It was quite enjoyable with a hearty stew at dinner this evening.

This is not your typical zinfandel. It has more sweetness and less spice than you would expect. It is almost port like at first. Lots of vanilla. Smooth drink after you get used to it.

Big, sweet mess that tasted cheap and disjointed. Not sure if it was because we drank it way too late or it just wasn't good (I have no other experience with Rombauer Zins), but it was basically terrible.

Very fruity for a 14 year old wine. Soft tannins and smooth mouth feel.

Fruit heavy, slightly past it's time (slight mold notes)
