Another pleasing, fairly-priced Old Vines Zin from the reliable St. Franics winery. This version showed a dark berry nose and flavors with less overt oakiness than usual, as well as a bit less depth and length than in some previous years. Not as weighty feeling in the mouth as we're used to, but overall well-balanced and tasty. - HK 2006-12-13
