It was a hard choice between this great Zin and the Seghesio Cortina. Together they're among the very best 2000's we've tasted -- unusual in that for most other wineries, we preferred the 1999's to the 2000's. This wine was a little less briery than the Cortina, but nearly as rich and long. Pure, deep, spicy raspberry/blackberry fruit are found along with sweet oak and a silky texture. Very fairly priced. - WB Team 2002-09-03
