Blackberry cobbler nose with light smoke, spice, a touch of vanilla and some herbal background. Deep garnet and clear, red to the rim. Medium body, medium acidity, moderate tannins for a Zin (3% PS), palate has similar flavors to the nose but with some earthy character and a decent finish.

Fruit jumps out of the glass, nose a touch hot. Mouth coating jamminess and spice follow on the palate. Chilling and finally checking out Westworld finale!
