A little hot and probably a bit past peak, but drinking well and went great with grilled sausage.

I'm not usually the biggest Zin fan but this one made me change my mind. No sappy jam in this bottle- so fresh and bright!!!

This is my prototypical Zin. Fruit-forward, full-bodied, and bold. It really doesn't get better than this. Accompanied a Marin rib eye and also a homemade pasta bolognese over Valentines' Day weekend.

If you believe Zin doesn't age well, try this. Beautifully rich with soft plummy fruit and briar spice. Lovely!

Really a good quandary. I pegged it as cab, fail.

Not the best Zin I’ve ever had but pretty solid. Ran a little hot. Ski trip with the Frasers
