Still drinking nicely. Lots of spice and cedar on the nose, Medium body and fairly big tannins on the finish (for a Sonoma zinfandel). The fruit has faded just a bit, so I would drink up now.

Restrained for a Cali Zin, Fruit and tannins well integrated and paired nicely with a "Thanksgiving Dinner" of Turkey. Very good example of a zin with ripe fruit and spice.

Very nice! Good fruit with some austere mineral notes. Really hard to beat this when they're using Monte Rosso fruit.

OK, a little flat and lacking structure and fruit.
