Great wine, nice notes of tobacco and earth. Plus it's got a Detroit story!

Very drinkable, if a little young. A lot of oak. The zin is the jammy end of things, but is balanced into the blend, so it's not over the top. Probably will be better in another 3-4 years.

Not very good to me. Thin, sweet (not jammy), flat. Why did I buy 3 bottles???
