Nose is all about raspberries, spun sugar, and grape jelly. Kind of sweet, very easy drinking wine. Nothing to get overly excited about, but certainly a pleaser to 90% of the red wine drinking public. Finish is bit one-dimensional but compared to most other old-vine Zins out of Lodi, this one is quite good!

nice nose of dark fruit. Entirely too sweet for a zin, with no tannins. Very smooth, fruit forward zin that bordered on being too fake. Sorry couldn't get past the sweetness, to truly enjoy.

Nose a bit closed, but flavors positively explode with red fruit (especially raspberry). Mild to moderate tannins. 30 second finish. Very nice wine, one I can see drinking on a regular basis. Excellent QPR.
