Alcoholic nose with some restrained strawberry, tart cherry, and soft oak aromas. Medium-bodied flavors show additional touches of raspberry and earthiness. Warm in the mouth and finish from the high alcohol level. Good but a bit raw and untamed, and to my taste inferior to a number of other elegant, fruit-driven Edmeades Zins I've had in the past. - HK 2002-07-06
