Big and a bit overdone. Will try again tomorrow. Better day 2. Spice and pepper notes emerged. Raised rating.

Delicious Zin. Even tho the AVA says Dry Creek Valley, this is mountain fruit grown 1800 ft above Lake Sonoma.

Deep dark color. Blood and fire. Nose is pure berry-cherry of the Zin. Some smoke too. And medical tonic. Flavors are rich and chocolate-y. Also thick boy. It’s nice with the licorice, and leather. It’s hot, but not overly fruit-forward. Just a nice Dry Creek example of the Zin.
