First Benovia for me. Riper style zin, with some black pepper on the mid-palate, and showing a little alcoholic warmth in the finish. The label says 15.2% ABV, but I suspect it might be a little higher. Good, but it’s not going to join my regular rotation.

Pretty balanced zin from a very pretty winery. Taste is not over the top.

Not loving Zin right now, but this was delicious. Fruit forward, fresh, and super enjoyable.

Red fruit, raspberries with a hint Santa Rosa plum. Good tannins and balance it will age but is drinking nicely. No hint of alcohol or hotness on the finish.
