Deep rich color, this is at the top of its form. Integrated flavors, spice on palate and nose, I pegged this as Zin blind, but as a much younger wine. Glides over the palate. Excellent.

Brought to Jimsomare dinner at Anaheim White House. Red fruit, spicy and good acidity (which all the Zins showed from 1970 on). Still a bit one-dimensional, but this has time to go.

Over the hill. Cedar, not much fruit, light body, a little funk.
