Note di degustazione
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.

Dark reddish-black in the middle, tawny at the edge. Aromas of redcurrant, espresso, bitter chocolate, amaretto and clove; again, more claret- than zinfandel-like. Very rich, even powerful, with flavors rather like those of the '86. Quite perfumed in the mouth thanks to firm acidity. This may well remain fresh longer than the '86. Finishes with substantial but very even tannins. Alcohol pushing 15%.
