Well balanced Zin despite the high alcohol content. Lush dark fruit and taste improved tremendously after aerating for awhile. Enjoyed with spicy BBQ chicken thighs. Glad we finally drank this to avoid losing the heft and juiciness still in the. Bottle.

I really like this Zin. Peppery BBQ sauce and ketchup scents (weird and good). Ripe spicy fruit, balanced with acidity to keep it from being overpoweringly rich. 15.9% alcohol, caution.

Popped and poured. Nose of sweet cherry and earth. Flavors of sweet cherry, vanilla and a bit of strawberry. This was served with enchiladas and was not able to hold up. Still, a nice drinker.
