Fruity, but a weak finish for me.

👌👌 Pleasantly surprised me. Very palatable. On the sweeter side, which is not typical of old vine zins, but I actually enjoyed it. Lots of big fruit flavor. Sweet cherry finish. Evolves quite nicely as you let it open up.

It was ok. Drinkable. Not as rich as I'd expect a zin to be. Pretty light. Nice flavor, but a little sweet to my taste. Stains your tongue, lips and teeth. Not a good sign. Probably a good party wine, if you're not really trying to impress anyone. You could probably find box wine with similar results? Idk (Save your money)
