A look back to the 1973 Paris tasting same winery but this is the zin.
Keeping up aromas beautiful and nice notes of leather and tobacco.
Really and nice wine, kudos to Scott an Kelli who manage the cellar at Restaurant Press where it's on their winelist

Drinking well tonight, apparently. Everything is tasting great for some reason.

One of the oldest Zins I've had. Well made examples like this always seem to turn all stewed fruit and petrichor after a few decades in bottle. Very southern Rhône set of aromas. Enough acid and tannin to hold it together; unraveled steadily over a 2 hour window.

Probably best wine we had in the tasting. Still pretty light but peppery and with a bite of spice.
