Bought this after doing tasing at the winery. Really enjoyed this bottle. Hint of tobacco on the nose. Smooth and silky palate. Need more of it.... — 20 days ago

so Rhône-like with smoked meat and herbs, licorice. A big but balanced wine. Delicious. Throwing a lot of sediment. Very good. — 13 days ago

Oxidized, yes. Drinkable, for sure. Honey, stone fruit wrapped in caramel. Didn’t last long as it died within an hr — 3 days ago

I’ve always drank these young but this is developing nicely and retaining freshness at the same time. — 4 days ago

Really great option. Lighter and more cherry (but not too much) than some of the other Nickel & Nickel Merlots. Drank really smooth with the aerator. Great staple. Stock up. — 2 days ago

9.2

More like a fine Napa cab. Plum, blackberry, licorice, fresh herbs, light pepper spices, cigar box, and vanilla. On the palate it’s warm, gentle, and full of layered flavors, strung together by round but streaking acidity. Fine grained tannins.
Quite elegant, a word I don’t usually associate with Zin. Should continue to evolve over the next 5 years or so. — 11 days ago

9.1

An easy drinking lighter red, despite its 14.4% ABV. Nice expression of the grape. Good with food or by itself. It’s probably time to drink up, this does not have the structure or acidity to evolve more. Looking forward to my ‘14 and ‘15. — 5 days ago
