I agree with another comment that at first it's a little tart. Give it some time in the glass or decanter and it opens nicely.

Always a great wine. This time, I may have done the wine a disservice because I paired it against or with (however you see it) the 2012 Caymus. The Zin came in light vs the Caymus and I was actually disappointed. Flavor profile was nice. Abundant fruit, great nose, just lighter body than I recalled.
