  I am enjoying the journey on this wine. Hard to recall the first bottle well, but the bright fruits I commonly find in this wine (other years too) are clearly transformed. There is a nice dark cherry remaining, and a lovely spicy and bitter finish. Some of the creamy oak seems to have melted into spice and pepper. Mouthfeel is substantial and still a tad gritty, yet in a way that I am enjoying quite a bit. Impressions of sweetness have really faded. I remain curious about where this still might go, and this bottle reverses some doubt about the value of waiting as long as I have.

  Drank 2 years beyond date, still very good. A lot of berry , strawberry, but gentle, not sweet. Very drinkable

  Silky tannins underly soft jammy red fruit. Bright acidity brings loads of freshness and a cherry candy finish.

  Good ol' Seghesio blue top (Sonoma County). Well made and reliable Zin at an affordable price. Still plenty of nice fruit in this 8 year old wine.
