Turning into a Zin night (@Martin G Rivard - your favorite 😂😂). While from the same vineyard this is a totally different style compared to the Studio 750 Korte Ranch. Still fruit-driven, this is much more restrained. Dark fruit, loads of vanilla, medium tannins.

A well made ripe Zinfandel, rich full bodied, nose is full of ripe black cherries, coffee, tobacco, plums, full body , soft tannins, lacking a bit of acidity, long smoky finish. A bit overwhelming for me, yet a typical Californian zin that is well made. My score 86, drink to 2018

Consistently delicious year after year. The nose gives off aromas of plum, tobacco, and some sweet vanilla. This is full-bodied and a big California zin with dark fruits and black pepper on the palate. Elyse is always reliable and their Korte Ranch is outstanding.

Absolutely one of my favorite Zins. Big and jammy fruits with nice spice, silky mouthfeel and long lasting finish.
