Its good, but it should be better. Distinct raspberry and blueberry notes on the nose, sherbert too, but lesser delivery on the palate. Well made, but not great. Pandemic bottle #14.

Pepper and nutmeg. Plum flavor. Good table wine. Slightly over rated as I expected something more unique and complex. This one does have a good finish however.

A less raucous zin. Refined. Some astringency, but for me this also included black forest cake. Great! This was a highlight of our Kenwood tasting.
