Nicely developed. Good spice, dark fruit, slightly stewed character. Always a solid Zin!

Legend has it this cabin vineyard was haunted. An amazingly expressive rocklike zin. Gonna need to revisit this one in the future. Damn.

8 years wait paid off! This was a very special bottle to me and it took some special people getting together for me to open it up. Just as good as the company. Thanks for the great wine Clay!

Still drinking well considering the age. Some spice and I think some flint.
