Served with our traditional Christmas dinner which is a redux of thanksgiving. I opened this a couple hours before dinner and after the initial taste I was concerned but it opened beautifully.
This was the second bottle after a 2006 Grgich zin, perhaps not robust but respectable. Lots of black and blue fruit, pepper jam and meatiness.

Great Zin aged in oak, so soft tannins, lots of cocoa and baking spice, finish of fruit. Nice and complex, yet easy drinker.
