Top Notes For

9.1

Needs air (it’s a little bitter and clenched at first). But then it displays pure, ripe dark cherry fruit, and notes of tobacco leaf and stony minerals. Good acidity and balance in the very pure palate. Tremendous value!

This is a soft Zin, with aromas of berries and subtle spice. On the palate jammy blackberry and strawberry flavors, nice acidity on a balanced frame, soft tannins. Medium finish ending with fruit notes. Tasting Sample.

Just okay. Good for the price. Had with a nice steak and didn’t make it better.
