Love the old vine Zins...Big black fruit, great acidity, floral and baking spice.

Great wine, soft but good structure, no browning with delightful long finish. Should have bought this every year!

Dark cherries and a light peppery background. The old vine Zins are my favorites due to the added complexities they can bring to complement the black fruits.
