16.5/20 (89/100) Вино с ароматами желтых яблок, груш, бананов и сливочного масла. Довольно тельное умеренной кислотностью и тёплым алкогольным финишем. Яблоки и табак во вкусе. Элегантное, не передубленное шардоне. — 6 years ago

Had many bottles of this RRV Zin and seems to keep getting better. One mistake was not letting it sit but will fix that with future bottles. Strong dark berry (blackberry), black and green pepper, spice mix, and more make this something that accentuates a dry rub for BBQ while also being an enjoyable sipping wine as well. — 3 years ago

I brought this into a shop I managed about eight years ago...it was still there tonight. Concerns over vintage (and a drinking window label statement of 5-10 years), erratic storage practices since I left the shop, and an engorged and busted cork were well founded. Cork debris, a considerable amount of sediment filtered upon decanting, and a good hour-and-a-half of development, and I can say my fears have been assuaged. This is only slightly past peak, a pleasant surprise for a $36 Shiraz from the Aussie heyday. Showing lush boysenberry liqueur, thyme, licorice, and leather with a still lively acidity, velvety tannins, and a heat that, thankfully faded from damning to acceptable over time, this was just plain fun — 7 years ago
