Plenty of cedar on the nose. Bright red fruits — strawberry and raspberry — not getting a ton of purple fruits. Big black pepper and spice coming through. Glad it’s not too jammy at the $10 price point. As James Cromwell once said, “that’ll do, pig.”

Intense aromas but but but ....nothing else. Overly sweet jammy fruit forward with a weird artificial sugar finish. Hard pass on this.

Luscious and rich dark berries and plums. A hint of wood and vanilla. Not overpowering like some Zins can be.
