tastes like a mature Zinfandel should, starting to take on claret like notes. Good blackberry and sour dark cherry fruit, still showing a little hint of sweetness. Tertiary notes of a little leather and lots of dirt starting to push through. Still a bit of a acid hit on the finish, and a slight hint of green pepper.

This wine has reached levels of complexities I don't find in Zinfandels, loads of dark fruit, noticable eucalyptus, interesting spice, just a beautiful wine. 93

(Bedrock Stellwagen Zinfandel) #3; COLOR-dark; NOSE-it's extremely big; big black fruit; a little pepper as well; PALATE-big fruit give is a delicious factor, but a little heat on the finish, although it's extremely young; a little fake fruit; but guest Mark Oldman says, "It's kind of like a Lady Gaga who is a little fake, but I still like her". (and Gary concurs); GV-88

Still drinking nicely, but a bit disjointed. Fruity, but in a slightly raisiny way. Not in balance.

This is drinking just beautifully right now. Popped and poured but also drank over 3 days - great each day. Awesome Zinfandel!
