Score 90/100 · Robert Parker, Feb 1996

Note to Readers: This wine was included in issue 103 in a section titled "Time and Chance Reveal All Secrets" in which Robert Parker described the characteristics of top American Zinfandels (robust, exuberant, supple, velvety-textured generosity displayed in an ostentatious manner) and emphasized the fact that they are meant to be drunk within 6-7 years of the vintage. The wines were tasted blind in December, 1995.

Good full color. Highly aromatic nose combines plum, tobacco and smoked meat. Thick and silky in the mouth; strong in extract. Mature roasted coffee and plum flavors. Lots of sweetness in the mouth, but the acids are also apparent. Finishes with a slight tannic edge, yet the tannins are by no means excessive. Drink up: today, but the clock is ticking.
