Like a lot of the older SO this Alexander Valley didn’t last long. Opened to lots of bright fruits but died quickly. — 22 days ago

Deep Ruby color with aromas of dark black fruits, herb and pepper spice, fruit from both estate vineyards in the Russian River Valley, Dry Creek and Alexander valleys. On the palate flavors of blackberry and plum with espresso, leather, tobacco and black pepper. Firm tight tannins, medium+ finish with fruit and spicy ending. — a month ago

From vineyard to my cellar, drinking wonderfully, great blended fruit that has mellowed, good acidity… great finish… drinking very well, couple years left but not much longer IMO! — 22 days ago

Made for a nice strong wine for Magic: The Gathering night. Aromas of plum, blackberry and dark chocolate. Strong, lingering dark fruit, chalky minerality and cocoa. This one needs to breathe a bit.

Excellent wine. Color showed no sign of age, dark edge to edge. The nose had a lot going on; lead pencil, berries, licorice and others. The taste was full with a nice long smooth finish. Now on to 2016s. — 10 days ago

So solid, year in year out - I know they make a ton of this, and yes it’s at Costco, but when you’re looking for a reliable Zin, this is it. Bordering on being too fruit forward - this barely checks the box for secondary aromas & flavors. Balanced harmonious with intermediate aging potential. Try to find their single vineyard offerings. — 16 days ago

Really like it. Definitely tastes some fruits and something else. Not as bold as some others but was a nice change from the rich cabs we’ve been having. — 11 days ago
