A bigger, chewier, deliciously made version of Miraflores estate bottling, the Herbert Vineyard is dry and smooth, a Zin of blackberry and pepper notes throughout with a finish that could go on for days. Made by Marco Cappelli, who bought the Frank Herbert Vineyard in the town of Fair Play in 2002. ——V.B.(9/1/2011)—— 90

Very aromatic, with an elusive note of violets that adds to the attractions of the blackberries, briary wild cherries, licorice and black pepper. Full bodied and dry, this Zin is charmingly sweet in fruit and brown butter on the finish. ——S.H.(6/1/2010)—— 90

Miraflores bring a Merlot-style balance to this Zin. It’s dry and complex and likeable now for its array of wild berry, Asian spice, teriaki beef and black pepper flavors that last so long on the finish. A near-perfect Foothills Zin at a fair price.——S.H.(11/1/2009)—— 92
