Three bottles discovered at a CT restaurant, all impecccable. Decanted but tasted along the way the nose is concentrated and sweet, almost cloying — maitre Zinfandel aroma. Over time in the mouth opens up to extremely long and complex, with a lot of structure at the core (could age 10+ years but gorgeous now) and layers of fruit and minerals. A complete wine with the only negative being simplicity / cloyingness on the nose — nose quite disconnected from mouth.

Superlative experience—completely singular nose of winter spices (dad said cinnamon), berry. As it opened in the glass over an hour, the fruit came through more, so delicate and nuanced. Just a really unique wine.
