This is a superb Zinfandel, with an uncanny textural and even flavor resemblance to a top notch Silver Oak Alexander Valley Cabernet. Wonderful nose-caressing aromas of deep black cherry, plum, spice, and licorice, silky-smooth mouth feel, outstanding balance and depth. This is without question the best sub-14% Zin we've ever tasted. Drinking absolutely beautifully right now. - WB Team 2001-01-05
