This was showing up so well despite the age. Raspberry, black cherry, craisin, red licorice, clove, on palate there’s still plenty of acidity to balance the candied/dry fruit quality, with white pepper, forest floor, and light medicinal herbs on the finish.

Completely banging with meatloaf topped w bbq sauce and roasted sweet potatoes and cauliflower seasoned with smoked paprika.

My wife is going to be bruised after this night! (Because we’re making pasta by hand with a crank)

Caramel odor. Profound on the first taste, then a surprising freshness, pétillant, unexpected

Red fruit with some bell pepper. Smooth tannins, easy drinking but still has layers. Not as good as the 2011. Not as much pop as other Zins

Fruitier & lighter than the typical Red Zin. Easy to drink with lasagna & chocolate cheesecake.
