Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe berry fruits and spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black plum with licorice, herbs and pepper spice. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit , spice and tobacco notes. Nice!

Seriously drooling. In your face black cherry and spicy herbs. Not my normal style, but this bold fruit bomb is really doing it for me. I've fallen for this wine and I can't get up...

Very representative of what a Paso Zin should taste like...awesome ripe dark fruit - liquified blueberry pie in a bottle. Extremely balanced for a wine that is 15+% alcohol.

Well made but way overripe. More like port than a still wine. Glycerin dominates every aspect of the flavor and mouthfeel of this wine.
