Wasn't expecting much since any catchy name wines usually end up being so-so for me. I was surprised at this very Zin wine. Nice fruit, spice, and didn't think it was too hot or in it's past life. And I'm still alive after drinking the entire bottle of Poison!!! ++

Hot on the nose--mostly alcohol and yeast. Not much fruit here. Getting chalky and harsh. I would guess this does not have much time left. Drink up soon, and pair with something big and savory to detract from what little is here. Still drinkable, just not what I remember this being.

Wasn't expecting a lot but was surprised. Deep garnett color, nice layers, balance, and flaovr. Great nose and legs. Opened to have a quick glass and figured I may cook with the rest, but I'll definitely go back for more drinking.

This is a great wine for everyday consumption. Very fruity and is still holding up good for a zin with a skew top.
