Fantastic. Well aged fruit with perfect acidity combines for a luscious and silky palate with medium long finish. Although at the peak of the drinking window, this will continue to delight through 2025.

Perfumed with concord grapes and black berries and sweet spices. Luscious, with ripe fruit. Acid minus and blended in oak. Round mouthfeel, with full body and medium to long length and pleasant finish.

Drinking perfect, at the peak of the window.

Still very good Zinfandel ... fruit forward ... blackberry, blueberry, with chocolate undertone ... spice ... and balanced tannins. Time to drink up if you have it!

Refined Zin. Lighter bodied than expected. Powerful blackberry fruit with peppery baking spices and licorice on the finish.

Really good zin. Blueberry, spice and menthol on the nose. Rich and full but not overpowering. Good stuff

Hit the spot tonight, with 8 inches of fresh sloppy snow outside. My last of 3 bottles -- still drinking well. Fruit forward. Bright red fruit, cherry, spice, cocoa. Silky tannins with a dried fruit finish.

Pop and pour. Delicious Zin with mouth-filling fruit, light acid, sturdy tannins. Good balance and showing really well.

Outstanding Zinfandel with layers of black and red fruits accented nicely by a little spice and oak. Wine is likely in the zone, drink now through 2020.

One hour decant. Dark, briary, juicy red fruit and blueberry extract, well balanced with peppery spice, anise, and chocolate covered cherries. Nice match with beef medallions and pesto ravioli. Yummy and likely in the window for 2-3+ years. Only 1 bottle, would re-buy.

Fruit forward, spice, and put on weight with air time. Seemed a step down for the last bottle - I could have used a bit more complexity tonight. That said, still an excellent bottle of zin!

Consistent with my previous June 2017 tasting note, but just slightly rounder and flabbier. A very impressive Zin nonetheless. Drink through 2019, it is not likely to improve with further aging.

Tart but no tannin. Smooth and gentle mouth feel. Medium to light body. Depth of flavor was noteworthy.

I grew up thinking of Zin as a pink weak and watery picnic wine but I'm loving the high alc high sugar Cali Zins. That said, this is nice a fun glass, like a date but not blossoming into a relationship. It's fun and sweet and decently (but not entirely) balanced but it's maybe a little simple compares to the black magic of The Prisoner for example which I love.

Delicious! Spicy overtones that showed blackberry and cocoa ... reminded me of a mocha chip ice cream ... only warmer!

Very good Zin. Lots of lush fruit, dry, medium tannins, velvety on the palate. Medium finish. Just really good for our taste. Used it in braised beef short ribs and then finished the bottle with the meal. I would definitely buy this again.

Perhaps a bit tired at this point. Nice but had no verve - needed some air.

Not sure if this isn't my style, but it was a pretty one note, straightforward wine, and not something that you would expect to see on a top 100 list. Fruit forward, a little spicy but not overtly so.

Full of zesty berry fruit with cracked pepper and at least a couple notes from the spice rack. A pretty pure example of zinfandel.

Cherry jam, brewed tea nose with a note of leather and cumin spice. Warming but elegant palate. Good complexity and balance with an evolving, lip smacking finish. 4/5

I'm not a Zinfandel person so take the following review with a grain of salt. Initial reaction - for me this just falls kindof flat. It's almost overly extracted and fruity without a lot of other flavors. Could use a bit more acidity and maybe some earthy or something other than overly ripe fruit. After ~20 minutes in the glass, I am starting to see some other flavors poking through. it is still very fruit dominated, but now I also …
