    This wine is rich, ripe, concentrated and almost sweet. It's wonderful to smell the raspberry syrup aromas, taste the blueberry and blackberry flavors and feel the creaminess of the texture coating the palate. Low in tannins but high in viscosity, it's a pleasure to sip.

    Candylike oak aromas and flavors dominate this full-bodied and rather tannic wine. It smells and tastes like vanilla, fresh-sawn oak and maple syrup. Some ripe plum flavors in the background are nearly sweet.

    This is a great wine for fans of the flashy, almost sweet, dark colored and fully oaked style of Zin. It has a tasty sense of maple syrup on waffles, boysenberries and vanilla. Full-bodied and concentrated, it's firm in texture and slightly sweet on the finish.
