A Classic California Zin. However this bottle showed less fruit than prior bottles. That said, 2 hours of air help to open it. Amazing for an 80 year old wine. Needs air. A legend.

It's rare, it's tired, it's a relic, and it tasted good for about 4 minutes.

Solid. A little aggressive and slightly dry. A little earthy but full body that covers the entire mouth evenly.
