Jammy with soft tannins. Let's see how it goes with pizza.

Bang bang bang for your buck! Lush Lodi fruit supported by firm tannins and a spicy backbone. One of the best finds at the California Wine Fair. -- Wineshout.com

Oh baby! This is a juicy, jammy, lush smelling deep garnet bad ass! Smells of chocolate, and blueberries. A little allspice and blueberries on the palate. As jammy as this is it is a little lighter than you would expect an old Zin. This is a 2013 Zin. This is a keeper for sure! This could be a great go to wine to please any crowd.

If you like your Zin with big jammy in your face fruit then here you go. A little smokey burnt end bbq thing going on with dashes of black pepper.

Moderate nose but with a big jammy open and lots oak and vanilla. Finish seems cherry-ish. Great value for the price of $12 at Foodland Honolulu!
