Sep 4th, 2015Another example of why we like these Zins so much, though this one was definitely on the young side. We're going to begin treating Rockpile like Lytton Springs and give them s good 4-5 years to mature. This one was beautiful the next day--deep berry notes, a terrific acid backbone, a little sawdust note on the nose along with some blackberry.
