Had many bottles of this RRV Zin and seems to keep getting better. One mistake was not letting it sit but will fix that with future bottles. Strong dark berry (blackberry), black and green pepper, spice mix, and more make this something that accentuates a dry rub for BBQ while also being an enjoyable sipping wine as well.

Had with BBQ ribs. Sometimes strong fruit on the nose and palate just fits. Modest chalk flavor in mid palate, very slight spice, and smooth.
