Taster #6553 · Apr 20, 2011
90/100
opened 4/19/2011. about 1/2 inch ullage. cork moist/soft--used ah so to pull. pouring, it was very light--brick red/ pinot- like. Not a lot of sediment. Smelled of dried rose petals, some cherry. tasted like pinot noir--would have guessed that blindfolded. It surely rewards the cellar time. 18/20. smooth, slowly forming, long thick legs. wonderful aftertaste/lingering. well balanced. simply delicious and did well with grilled sirloin. not a lot of sediment. Old Zins often become pinot noir like in their geriatricity …
