At 6 years old it’s medium medium medium in a good elegant in way. Has the character of an old vine without the saturation.

Damn this is great Zin. I believe the Maffei Vineyard is around 100 years old. The nose features the brightest, deepest, purest essence of Zin blackberry fruit. There’s also some toasty and gravelly scents. In the mouth it’s bright and intense. Zingy acids are sooooo welcome. Intensity with real balance. Wow.

Love this! Deep, brambly spicy blackberry Zin fruit, a whiff of gravel. Deep and balanced in the mouth. Alcohol only 14.5% thank God.

A strong berry beginning with a toasted caramel finish.
