Koolaid all over. Fruit pinch notes with a tiny bit of smoke. Juicy enough to be approachble but a but one note from me. Ill give it some points for not being oaked to death.

I didn't think it was that bad, but what do I know about wine? More importantly, Suzanne hated it.

If you buy it to cook with for a couple bucks, awesome. If you buy it for anything else, you're gonna be bummed out. Too fruity and sweet for a Zinfandel.

Mild for a California Zin, but still full bodied. High alcohol. Not a lot of notes, slight berries and chocolate. Overall pretty good, not outstanding.
