Light on the palate. Blackberries, some mint, gentle acidity.

Quite possibly the best Napa Valley Zinfandel with 10+ years on it, shoot, 5 plus years on it. Amazing fruit, so very well put together, good acid, and absolutely great color and clarity. Touché Truchard. Looking forward to more.

Medium garnet to ruby. Flowers, strawberries, plums, cloves, very warm with notes of cinnamon.

Light wine now. A little late. Still good. Blackberry and spice. A bit tannic which takes away the some flavor.

Big fruity and spicy nose with lots of plum. Very lush palate with grippy tannins. Flavors of plum and dark berries going along with bright acidity. Long, smooth finish.

Smooth. Some age and sediment in the bottle. Pretty good for $14. Would like a cheaper price.
