Balanced and silky, fruit and modest tannin, not as heavy as many Zins. 2020 vintage tasted at the winery.

An impromptu Ridge night paired with eggplant pasta. Wine #1 is the Boatman - great blueberry pie fruit with enough acidity and grip to not be a bomb. Quite good

Apologies for the succulents that appear to be growing in the glass...though there is a hint of green olive/tapenade in this. Tar and strawberry as well. Pretty nice, overall. Thinking would be excellent around 2023.
