Always such a great Zin.

Smells of sticky jam berry.


Spicy boysenberry, Pomegranate juice, Eucalyptus, medium bodied, a touch of fruit pie, great acid to tannin drift.

Still a great Zin.

A shame good Zins have become such rarities.

Remember when this label was black and white?

Pretty typical Alex Zin, strawberry, cherry, and whiffs of crushed black pepper. More finesse then power. Expressive nose and lengthy finish.
