This is the hummer I'm taking to Rocky Point Mexico for our Thanksgiving TuurDuckEn. After tasting 8 moderately priced Zins this was the hands down winner. Loads of Fruit on the nose with the perfect touch of briar and spice. All hit the mouth with a "BAM". A fairly long finish for a Zin also at 3+ lapps. Should also IMHO be posted in the "Best Buy" thread. Very smopoth with enough sweet oak to balance and no noticible alcohol. Good Stuff! 88/92. 14.5% alc. 14 on sale WW
