2011 tasting - A light red with a fruity, earthy bouquet, this Zinfandel has an intense, jammy, spicy flavor coupled to a spicy finish. Some sediment.

2009 tasting - A slightly purplish red, this Zinfandle has a chewy, berry bouquet coupled to a very chewy, surprisingly light flavor and a tart, chewy finish.

2008 tasting - A light red, this wine has long legs. With an incredibly deep and fruity bouquet, this Zinfandel has a light, fruity taste of the mountains with a dry, intense finish. Could it still be a bit young?

2007 Tasting - This dark red colored Zinfandel has a sweet bouquet which couples beatifully to an excellent sweetish flavor that is complex and has a long aftertaste.
