I was hoping for a wine reflecting 92 points but this bottle was NOT even close. Now this is a pleasing bottle of Zin but it was thin in body and therefore light in flavor. It had little Zin briariness and its finish was not at all tannic. A BIG disappointment. I hAve another bottle and will see how it is later.

Definitely young, with lots of ripe plum, some figs, raisins, and baking spices. Bits of earth here and there. Light ruby colour but more dense on the palate. Great acidity. Day 2 was more of the same, perhaps more obviously fruity.

Earthy and meaty with a strong core of bramble to make sure it's Zin. Delicious over two days.

Wine geek's wine. Seriously old vines with limited fruit production. Love it. 90 pts.
