The last two bottles of this iconic, hand block print labeled hippie Zin were both earthy and spicy and showing well. At 37 years of age they were well preserved. They would have shown in the 90s 15 years ago. Farewell to an old friend. — 7 years ago
I don’t in general think I like purple wines, & boy is this purple. But if a Cru Beaujo had a love child in Austria, hippie style, this would be it. All sorts of wild blueberries & raspberries, a slight effervescence (?), but some how tamed. Enjoyable. — 2 years ago
Interesting wine. 65% Kratosija and 35% Vranec. From Macedonia (this is the only wine I’ve ever had from the region. Bought a prior version on a lark from the hippie grocery in St Pete, FL. I buy a case every year. Great value too. — 5 years ago
Great white. Especially when had at hippie fish in mykonos — 7 years ago
Lager colored, flaxen, stained mattressish brown gold edge that fades a saturated white-yellow center. Smells of ice wine and wet metal. Birch beer-hippie toothpaste-herbal essence flavors. Orange bitters. A hint of retsina. Tart citrusy end notes. A bookish, attic wine, for dusty interiors. — 4 years ago
Earthy, bursting bouquet, fruit and spicy. It’s a hippie wedding in a bottle! Oui! — 7 years ago
