Distinctive claret-style zin.this has the structure to age, but it’s quite approachable. Very balanced.

PnP. Paired nicely with BLT’s on brioche buns. Lovely transparent purple color. Restrained and low OH. Subtle oak and dark fruit. Pretty average Zin all around.

PnP. Transparent red color. Restrained nose with subtle floral tones and earthiness. Wine has minimal fruit and is very light. Really lacks umph. Short finish. Pretty mediocre.

blackberry bramble, dark chocolate, iron. polished, smooth and spicy. on the lean side for zin, but rich in the ways we want. not even the slightest bit jammy or heavy. but with balls. a deeply accomplished expression of the grape and of russian river.

Nice balance of minerals and fruit. Thick with tongue smacking tannins. Keeps you wanting to sip more. Don't mind if I do.

Yeah. That is Zin with some tension. I wish more Zin was made this way. Peppery, bright red fruit. Food wine!
