For an inexpensive wine, it has a lot to offer. It needs a serious decant, but after rewards a chewy dense pallet, full of black plum, black raspberry, mocha, black pepper, and smokey dark chocolate. It feels like a baby version of Helen Turley Zins.. the Jam factor is at the tip of the threshold that I prefer, with decent balance.
Did I mention it is a $12 bottle of Zin? It is at the very least over performing.

Very good zin. A bit on the spicy side before it opens up, but that makes for lovely meat pairings. I’m catching a little bit of cassis in the middle, but overall fruity with nice berry flavour and a clean, subtle, finish.

A really good bargain Zin! Love the dark berries and smoothness of the wine. At about $10, will be buying regularly!
