Surprised that a 10 year old Zin was still tasting this well, although surely more interesting 5 years ago. Really enjoyed the chocolate on the finish.

Tasted a bit past its prime - if you have any of these laid up, I wouldn't wait too long to drink them - but it was still very pleasant. A bit toned down compared to some zins - it may have been a bit punchier in its prime.

Unlike the other bottle (same vintage), this bottle was exceptional! Exactly what I remembered-- fantastic nose, awesome taste, great finish. Reminds me of our visit to Napa and our first tasting of this wine.

Wonderful Zin. Very jammy and heavy on the mid palate. Aromas of plum, licorice and mild tobacco. Long vein of chocolate on the back end. Very smooth finish.

Wild berry fruit on the nose that is a bit ripe, along with incorporated pepper and spice. The spice continues on the palate and the fruit is deep, broad, and coating on the tongue. The wine still has plenty of structure and should age well for a few more years. This is drinking great right now.

Good, solid, mid-priced Zin. Pretty high alc. content but may have added to why I liked it. Definate re-buy.
