Worth every penny:
Big, Round, Rich, Luscious.
Darkest purple possible without being black, with a thing ring of burgandy red-to-rosé/pink floating around the edges of the purple-black wine in the bowl.
Deep alcohol-leather-pipe tobacco-chanterelle aromas when I swirl. Many lovely spindly legs run down the sides of the bowl and back to that inky pool of tantalizingly rich, "dangerous, dark woods forbidden" purple.
The first sip brings huge wild cherries to mind -- but these cherries must have been fire-roasted and spiced with black pepper, cloves, then mixed with tart red plums, a single just-barely-ripe raspberry, and a handful of sun-kissed blueberries all macerated in pure Madagascar vanilla.
This is ambrosia worthy of wild boar, venison, the boldest, richest steak of all time -- no tender cuts for this big wine.
The finish: LOOOOOONG. Not complex, but delightful even if one note. One long, alcohol-hot note of goodness to remind one that this was oak-barrel aged and will grow and grow and grow if cellared. — 10 years ago
Delicate and consistent. From the very first to the very last, the flavor was exactly there. The structure, the flavors, the acidity, the sweetness, everything in between never waver. It was an incredibly concentrated and precise wine that just overwhelmed with it simplicity. Sounds weird to say that, but it was very light and very structured and even though it looks like it’s a dark and forbidden wine it’s something that just is very easy in your pallet with rose and fresh micro greens and crisp, barely ripe fruits and flavors like that. An amazing expression of just pure concentration from the wine maker in terms of delivering a product that they want with clarity outstanding. Very impressed by this wine.  — a year ago

Once upon a time there was a boy named Cab Sav who fell in love with a girl named Zin Fen. ‘Twas, however, a forbidden love. They came from families that were worlds apart who had been feuding for centuries. When Zin became pregnant with Cabs [grape] seed they decided to run away and start a new life. This wine is their love child. — 8 years ago
Zin Master Mike! This is what Eden's forbidden fruit must have tasted like — 10 years ago
Tropical with banana and pineapple shows ginger and lemon curd, nutmeg and light cinnamon. Whoa! Big pumpkin here with rich and creamy pie spices; vanilla, allspice, nutmeg, clove, cedar, oak, candied ginger, ginseng, lemongrass. Good move making it milkshake! Lactose drives the density and comforting substance. More like this please! And to the pumpkin hating zealots, just taste the forbidden fruit again, I won’t tell!
