Wish I had another few bottles of this to see how much longer it could age. Went wonderfully with our BBQ pork loin. Displayed lighter shade of red and purple, with smell of strawberry, blackberry, hint of varnish (which really was unique), little leather and more. In general, wonderful taste and bottle went too quickly.

Good Zin with modest pepper on mid palate. Paired with pizza which may not have been best pairing.
