17.3% abv. I thought this wine was going to be hot and port like. However, the alcohol is extremely well integrated. Juicy ripe fruit and smooth finish.

Great Zin, fruit explodes in the mouth. Great balance of alcohol and juices. Great end of night wine. You don't taste the 17.4 alcohol . Served out of a mag. Catelli Duo Monday wine group...

17.1 % Alc.... Although I forgot to keep the bottle in a wine cooler it was a good experience... lot of fruit and some acid - but a heavy and strong wine especially towards the end of the evening...

Back in February last year I open a bottle and it was weak, unbalanced and disappointing. This evening I opened another and a year of cellar time has made a big difference. It's come together, elegant , still a bit sharp in acidity, but loads of strawberries and a nice finish. Went great with chicken pesto pizza.

Thought it would be hot, at over 17%, but it drank well.
