The '13 Wegat Vineyard Zin by Maley Brothers is a worthy addition to the Lodi Native lineup. It is colored very dark and smells that way, too. Blackberry and black cherry aromas do a good job of distracting from the subtleties that lie beneath them. Rich, black earth, minerals, smoke and coffee all appear in turn. The palate turns those aromas into tastes, with a plummy blackberry front, and amazingly earthy middle and a juicy finish that lasts forever. It's a big wine, a brawny drink - not elegant. This wine has broad shoulders, blue jeans, a big belt buckle and dust on its boots. Use it in a marinara sauce - you will have the best sauce ever. — 11 years ago

This'll make your knees buckle. Just pure, beautiful, unadulterated fruit shining brightly. Phenomenal weight, and a pleasant hint of bitterness. Can't get enough. — 11 years ago

Cocoa blackberry coulis explosion, über rich body - flamboyant, big and soulful. Tastes of warm mountainside, conifers dusted with cinnamon and brown sugar, mtn 'shroom tapenade spread on boysenberry pie. Not for the feint of heart or weak of drinking constitution at 17+%. Absolutely, without exception, needs some vittles to partner. Venison or ribs come to mind. Buckle up. — 13 years ago
