Very nice. We were a fan of the 2004, and this 2005 is a nice follow up. Goes well with strong flavored meals, as the label advises.

"Old" vine, "Young" wine. At 14.5%, this one could probably stand a year or two, at least, on the rack. Still, the infant version is enjoyable! It smells like grapes with some pepper and anise thrown in. There's a hint of something deeper, which cellaring might bring out. The color is light for a Zin. The taste to me is primarily of grapes, but has a nice, smooth richness to it as well. An initial slight sweetness disappeared after more breathing time. It was a very good companion to a peppery tomato-ground beef dish I made.

At this price point this is quite a find. A tad sweeter than I love, a tad hot, but very big on grapey flavor. Chewy peppered fruit. Will buy again.

It's wine. The predominant flavor is purple grapes, not red grapes, purple grapes. I would definitely have this with food. It has some undesirable effects otherwise. It is a good buy considering the price.

It's a pretty basic and uneventful zin... I guess I'd rather pay more in this instance.

Decent. Lush strawberries on the nose. Sweet and fruity on the palate, with more strawberry, blueberry, black cherry, etc...

I have always been a fan of Zinfandel and this was such a good price, that I had to give it a try. It wasn't overwhelmingly good, but I think it is a great deal and I will likely buy it again.
