This was a 3-liter bottle, so it probably aged a bit slower that its 750ml counterparts, but it was still very fresh, very fruity and still had great balance. Nice firm acidity and really soft, round tannins! 4 cups went to make the cranberry sauce, which some might consider a lousy application of good wine...but the cranberry sauce was spectacular.

Nice dark fruit with a great pepper finish. Add a little chocolate and it kicks it up a notch

Everything a Zinfandel should be - bright dark berry fruit, balanced by well-rounded tannins. Just a very solid, easy-drinking wine.

I love this wine, although if you like zins that taste like the ground, this isn't for you. Big jam and some heat on the nose. Palate starts with a mouthful of raspberry jam layered with white pepper that turns to cayenne. Finishes with bursts of fig, vanilla, butterscotch, and cinnamon. Hard to have just one glass.

A very nice cherry cola bomb. Perfect for light snacks on a summer night. Not a sophisticated wine, but super enjoyable easy drinker nonetheless.

for the $20, there are other more balanced Zins out there - this is rich but a bit cooked and pruned.

Big Paso fruit bomb (stewed plum, raspberry jam, wood) on the nose and palate. Medium-bodied. Too much wood on the finish. Still tasted big - albeit somewhat flabbier - 3 days later. Good if you like this kind of thing.

Initial taste was a big blast of raspberry with cinnamon. Dark fruit & cherry tasted emerged later in the bottle. Vivid tastes were present throughout the bottle.
