This is a Sebastiani division wine. Sealed with a zork, the label and packaging are unique. Spicy raspberry upfront with dark cherry flavors on the nice finish. Hints of underbrush and pepper round out the complexity of this zin. The flavors are there but I found it a little to soft, almost flabby, for my preference. 14.9% Alc/vol. Paired with crab stuffed chicken breasts, twice baked potatoes with Monterey jack cheese and eastern shore tomatoes.

Yep, me too except I would have substituted a sharp cheddar for the Monterey Jack.
