These old vines are famous for concentration, and this Zin surely is one of the most intense wines of the vintage. It’s huge in wild berry, currant, licorice, dark chocolate, bacon and exotic spice flavors that go on and on. For all the richness, it’s wonderfully balanced, with fine tannins and a crisp backbone of acidity. Drink now. ——S.H.(12/15/2010)—— 92
