Second vintage of the carbonic Zin, now from the organically farmed estate vineyards in Fiddletown, and bearing a new name - "Zinster"
Lipsmacking, juicy blackberries, green peppercorns, dark chocolate and crush on granite. Chill it & chug it.

Blackberry bramble, red plum, beetroot and spice. Big and bold, with aggressive tannins, and soil & rock finish. Pass the j and throw that Tri-tip on the grill.

Light and subtle. Ok with heavier, spicy foods.

Zin isn't my favorite grape but I do give it respect - this wine has chocolate and a little coffee on top of dark berries and definite but restrained varietal character (not brambly) at 5 yrs old. Yum with pasta and red sauce and YUM with chocolate cake!

A decent, easy to drink zin with a nice spicy finish. Paid $16.95 at San Diego Wine Co. - great price!

Very smooth! Had this with a great friend and a great dry-aged boneless rib-eye that we seasoned and broiled ourselves. Great Zin flavor and balanced with the alcohol. Must have!
