Really good zin. Dialed back and restrained, which I love. Single vineyard Atlas peak juice. High toned with beautiful florals, juicy red fruit, bubblegum, and a bit of spice. This was tasty. Great buy.

Much better than my last bottle which was hot and disjointed. Thus one is showing great.

Great! Ripe but balanced, good richness and structure, +fruit purity - plum and cherry skins + cracked pepper spice, not jammy, nice tannin and mouth feel... Could drink a lot of this.

Smells like dark cherry... Tastes like berry, round jam and light green pepper at the end. Light finish and excellent to drink any time of year!!
