Cherry, vanilla cola with cherry syrup, not sweet though, slight stainless and freshly chopped herb aroma, light and perfectly suited for small bites in the FL heat. — 14 days ago
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Fruity nose with black fruits, light oak, chocolates and light mildew.
Medium plus in body and elegant, with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, light cedar, vanilla, licorice, light herbs, tobacco, cola, light vegetables and black pepper.
Nice finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This 9 year old might be a tad past its peak, but it gave it an interesting aged Bordeaux feel.
Showing nice complexity at this point. Fruit forward, tangy and easy drinking.
Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime. Needed 20 minutes of airtime to remove some of the funky notes, and gets earthier as it opens up.
I actually liked it more than I thought I would.

Really like it. Definitely tastes some fruits and something else. Not as bold as some others but was a nice change from the rich cabs we’ve been having. — a day ago
So solid, year in year out - I know they make a ton of this, and yes it’s at Costco, but when you’re looking for a reliable Zin, this is it. Bordering on being too fruit forward - this barely checks the box for secondary aromas & flavors. Balanced harmonious with intermediate aging potential. Try to find their single vineyard offerings. — 5 days ago

Sipping Fine Wine
When I’m not drinking a Napa Cab, I reach for a Jordon. Blend of 80% Cab Sauvignon, 10% Merlot, 8% Petit Verdot & 2% Malbec, aged 13 months in 100% French oak (35% new). Deep Ruby with aromas of red fruit, floral and an array of herb spices. On the palate flavors of cherry, blackberry and fig with oak, vanilla spice, leather and cacao notes. Rich fine tannins, well balanced and integrated with fruit and oak. Very Nice! Will age well. Just had this with a fillet mignon, Nice! — 14 days ago
