  Superb. I love hanging onto wines for a while, and then drinking them with friends. This one did *not* disappoint.
  
  Plenty of complex oak and fruit aromas, smooth and sweet on the tongue, with lots of "jammy" cherries and oak flavors. Dinner party with BBQ ribs, and this held its own against younger/ more expensive zinfandels quite nicely.

  St. Francis "old vines" makes superb Zin! Jammy, chewy, absolutely delicious. Had with grilled roast in a chimichurri sauce. Just perfect. Share with those who enjoy good wine with lots of character and depth.

  Had Xmas 2010 with filet. Berries on the nose, hint of oak medium body.
