1977?

TN,

Greetings from a fellow Vol trapped in Seattle! Sebastiani hasn't always been a value-wine operation. They have, at times, made great reds and quite a few of them show up in serious collectors' cellars. The '77 Zin is from a period when they were making some better wines and Zin does have some cellaring possibilities but it would depend on how they built the wine; tannins, extraction, acids, residual sugars, etc. If I had to guess, I'd bet it's still potable and maybe even tuned Port-like and interesting. Let us know!
