Quick decant. Heavy cedar shingle nose. Juicy palate entry of black and red plums and other wild berry turns dry quickly on the mid-palate, adding dusty raspberry and earth aspects. Acidity leads the finish into cherry, rhubarb pie, and long soft tannins, minerals, and beguiling oak.

This was a solid wine from Limerick Lane, although I have enjoyed others from them that I liked more. Maybe this was early in the drinking window and has a continued evolution and improvement curve. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed this. Featuring dark fruit with spice notes. This is deep, dark and a bit brooding. Great for a brisk autumn evening.

Deep magenta red….nose is shy red fruit…light floral note…reticent overall…. Deft touch for a zin as it’s light…maybe too light…bright red raspberry fruit, fine grain drying tannins…acidity uplift….. PNP…. Maybe decant longer….somewhat thin for their flagship wine Definitely on the thinner bodied, lighter fruited with acidity…. Somewhat disappointed….2 more to gain bottle age…will cap off and try tomorrow…
