(October 25, 2015) ... I'm a Zinfandel nut, which leads me to sometimes buying stuff before tasting, or really putting any thought into the purchase. This Zin proved to not be a favorite but it was still quite nice for what it was ... There's plum, spice and a little vanilla on the nose, which is good, and the mid-palate seemed to deliver on the aroma's promise, but the finish seemed too woody and earthy for a Zin; age might play a factor, but I liked aged Zin, this one just didn't have the appeal.
