Tried along side with what I felt were several lower octane Zins, paired with stuffed Manicotti and tomato sauce. Decanted as the cork broke. This was my only bottle of this vintage and opened it based on a positive experience with an '04 at Thanksgiving. This wine was delicious and well received by our guests. Decent nose, mellow, spicy Zin flavor that matched nicely with the pasta.

Wonderful Zin. Had with grilled turkey breast. Not too sweet. Nice balance that paired well with our meal. And still doing well.

Getting to be that old Zin flavor. A bit of fruit still, with that nice stewed finish, but the barrel is showing off.

Insanely good QPR. Just the usual Wellington quality at work here.
