Pretty typical Alex Zin, strawberry, cherry, and whiffs of crushed black pepper. More finesse then power. Expressive nose and lengthy finish.

Wayyyy too sweet! Come ON guys! If I'd wanted sugary cherry juice I would have bought some Ocean Spray. Why do wine makers think consumers want more and more sugar, and furthermore, cherries? I want WINE not fermented cherries.

This wine took a while to open up, but when it did, it was lovely! On the nose, jammy raspberry, spice, cinnamon, and oak. On the palate very ripe strawberry jam, chocolate, licorice, and a dusty finish.

Intense fruit but not in a bad way. The illustration on the label is a pretty good indicator of what's in the bottle.

Pretty good zin. Bold with dark fruit. Very nice tannins and slight smoke. Slightly acidic, but good.
