Top Notes For
Tom Casagrande

Young but so good in its youth. I absolutely love Beatty Ranch Zin. Always has such a unique profile. The bark-like/cracked black peppercorn note and dark gravelly earthiness is almost instantly recognizable. So deep in the mouth, but with zero flab or jamminess. Incredible structure and balance. Nice acids. Will age beautifully.
