2012 tasting - Purple colored, this Zinfandel has a dry bouquet. The flavor is tart and the finish is jammy.

2011 tasting - A light red with some sediment, this Zin has a sweet, dry bouquet evocative of the mountain terroir coupled to a sweet, excellent flavor and a dry, chewy finish.

2010 tasting - A light red with an excellent, chewy, fruity bouquet coupled to a flavor that knocks you out with incredibleness. Some sediment has formed, but the wine has aged very well. It is dry and chewy with a velvet mouthfeel and slow, long finish.

2009 tasting - A light red, this Zin has a strong, intensely fruity bouquet with hints of butter. The flavor is light, sensual and developing into a long, buttery aftertaste. Evidence of the mountain terroir presents a strong undercurrent throughout the experience.

2008 tasting - This Zin has an excellent, jammy, tart, complex bouquet for a dark, transparent red. The flavor is dry and very chewy with a finish strongly reminiscent of mountain soil.
