One of my favorite classic zin producers for many years now. Cherry, raspberry, good spice. No gimmicks, no smoke and mirrors, nothing trendy - just good, clean winemaking. Good price/quality ratio, too.

The 2013 Tip Top Syrah is delightful wine. It took only minutes to open to full body and flavor. A thoughtful gift from co-worker.
