Even after 4 hours, it still needed to breathe. Good spice and fruit.

Great spice and dark fruits. High acidity and high alcohol. Great zin on a cold night.

High alcohol as is typical of Zins but what a powerhouse wine with several more years in it ... Thankfully no typical peppery notes, very balanced

Smooth, light peppery finish. Good for a 14 year old wine

I know I know. It's pathetic I'm a J E T S Jets Jets Jets fan. But someone has to. Anyway I like my zins jammy this one is lacking the full jam. It's an OK drink.

I am a bit surprised by this wine. It has body but lacks some of the fruit tones I expect from a quality Zin. Nothing wrong with it, but I have tasted better.
