This wine was slightly past its peak, but still very drinkable. It had stewed boysenberry, nice notes of mocha and subdued black pepper, with quite the long finish. This bottle was probably at its peak 18 months ago.

Delicious. We have been holding this for years and it was worth it. Still spicy and full and complex. You have one, drink it. You never know, this may be the peak. If you don't consider Zins as worthy, drink this and re-evaluate. It would be wrong to not thank the Zin Bitch for his work with Four Vines. Thanks, Chris!

Juicy and delicious. Just enough earth and funk to keep it from being a fruit bomb. Seemed to lose its edge a little bit after being in the glass for more than two hours. Still, very enjoyable.
