Ah Sobon Zin. The good stuff. This has some lovely cherry and berry aromas. With a bit of cut wood and nice smelling pipes. Flavor a a hint hot with a brandy/port streak, but that doesn’t detract from things because the fruit and zip is also there. Plenty to chew on and savor. This is jammy, classic foothills stuff. Full flavored and robust. Quite tasty too.

Rich, lush and jammy. Great Zin that really brings out the best in spicy food. Great value from Costco.

I’ve had this bottle for ever and decided to open. Shockingly good Zin. Complete surprise. Fresh, blackberry, black currant, black pepper.

Well balanced... touch of sweetness and definitely fruit forward. Very drinkable right out of the bottle.. and has enough personality to be interesting!
