Nose: Black and white pepper nose with candy cherry

This is not your big jammy california Zin of late. Rather this tastes a bit more like an old style (almost old world) wine, a bit lighter and less fruit forward, a bit more earthy and very well balenced. This wine is great now but probably only has a couple more years in its prime.
