Great Russian River Zin. Floral nose with red fruit and baking spices on the palate.

Rich full red fruit with some spice and lots of weight in the round soft sort of way. There is definitely something spiciness going on.

Impressive for a RRV Zin. Cool and bright cranberry, with a bit of vanilla and a nice zip of acidity just before the playfully spicy finish.

I expected more from this wine. Surprisingly light for the almost 16% alcohol! Definite cranberries and cherries but not very complex. Medium finish. Needs decanting time
