My last bottle from a case. Slow O'd 6 hours, let the poured glasses sit for 30 minutes. The nose is just ripe and full. I could smell this all day. The palate is no slouch, but kind of clunky, and there is some alcohol. Red-fruited and floral. I can not figure out aging of zinfandel. There seems to be a fair amount of bottle variation.

Just a wonderful claret-style Zinfandel. Old world funk, red zin berry fruit, just the right amount of acidity... what's not to like? Drinking at it's prime IMHO.

Still young and room to evolve. Very fruity, lots of structure. Berry, bramble, spice. Great color.

Mmm. Meat with blueberry glaze. Really great right now. Wish it wasn't my last bottle.
