Above average typical Zin, color was garnet to brick from age, drank over three days, opened up but tasting was unaltered, not much on the nose, fading cherry and some strawberry, round and soft to taste from age, long lingering finish that made this wine special, late summer berries, cherries, and port like quality, drink up this baby is fading fast.

Blackberries and raspberries on the nose. Raspberries on the tongue as well. Seemed a bit "grape juicy" right after opened, a bit less after it had some air. I think we're a bit outside the drink window. I wish we would have opened earlier!

Even better day 2. The tannins are perfect and the flavors are meshed nicely. Went really well with Mexican food. Just enough spiciness to complement the dark fruit.

Not a bad Zinfandel. Dark fruit flavors, medium tannins. Served with lasagna. Don't know how it will be on day 2 because we drank it all tonight!

I like this. Very dry, with dark fruit and pepper, nice smooth finish. Tannins are a bit much, but a good wine for the money.
