LOTS of juicy cherry in the nose, along with noticeable alcohol that more breathing helps to dissipate. Hint of pepper. The taste is thick & very juicy, w/ cherry & grape dominating. It's heartier than the 2005. At 14% it should last awhile, too, so I'm going back for a couple more bottles. Good stuff!

I had to fix my car this week, so i went to my shiny new Monterey TJs looking for a bargain. Boy did I find one. This bottle surprised the hell out of me as I wasn't expecting much. Being new to the area and TJs I had never experienced their wine before but I was pleasantly surprised. bjwdad is right on with the nose and taste. It is subtle for a zin and a bit sharp on the first pour, but excellent after breathing. It does not have that zin "bite" but had just enough fruit and spice to keep me interested. It will be nice to see how it ages, if it gets that far in my cellar. This is the best everyday zin I have found yet so it probably won't. All in all, this bottle and a nice ready-to-bake pizza made for a nice $10 meal. And yes I mean the whole bottle and the whole pizza. It has been that kind of week. Enjoy!
