  Deep reddish-purple garnet in color. Full, forward, & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of dark cherries, blackberries & plums with overtones of dusty/earthy & spice notes of cloves & pepper, herbs, anise, dark cocoa, iron & minerals. Full bodied with a good concentration of well balanced, & smooth textured, lush, ripe fruit flavors of dark cherries, blackberries & mulberries with spices, herbs, minerals & dark cocoa. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & extended airing but like past vintages, it should develop further with several years of additional aging at which time it may merit a higher score (93+). Very good QPR from a consistent producer of excellent Zinfandels.

  The savory side of Zin. Vibrant acidity, black raspberry, pepper, mineral finish.

  This is very good but also a bit overwhelming in its youth: big brawny blackberry liqueur fruit with a judicious frame of wood spice, good acidity and enough substance that there’s no perceptible heat. The elements are all in balance but everything is turned up to 11. I think six months to a year in bottle might get it to stop shouting, but even if it doesn’t, IT’S STILL A SOLID VALUE (excuse me).

  Sandalwood and incense aromas popped from the glass. Really a lovely start. Blueberry, bramble and spice are all backlit by live wire acidity. All of the elements really popped with this one tonight. I thought this was super. This was really interesting and just keep drawing me back for another sip. Good value here. Re-buy. 94

  Cherry pie, burnt rubber, rocks, blueberries, blackberries. A hint of oak. Quite fruit forward but with a bit of funk. Silky tannins leaving a gentle grip on the finish. Medium acidity. Smooth. Drink now. Nice approachable zin.
