Not as incredibly extracted or concentrated as some California Zins with passable dark fruit and spice aromas, but this really expands in the mouth with blackberry and boysenberry flavors, some nicely integrated tannin and a nearly sweet, ultra-ripe finish.

Drinking well right now. Fruit is present but not in any ways overpowering. I don't think this one has a long shelf life, but having said that, it would be nice to have a few more bottle of this one. Good dark fruit with a nice subtle woody finish.

Very concentrated but not quite over the top. Could have been a bit more complex.
