Jammy nose, almost port-like mouth, peppery finish.

Great Porto alternative. Why so much hate. This is great.

17% and 2% residual sugar. Definitely not for me. Should prob have been watered back - must have been > 30 degrees brix?

Got a tremendous deal on this one. Nice expression of a CA Zin, look elsewhere for subtlety. Not the late harvest style, it's mostly dry despite its ripeness.

Winemaker's comment: Rich bouquet. Big, bright, ripe complex fruity flavors. Mouth filling. Balanced fruit and acid.
