Nothing small about this wine. A super-dark, ripe, juicy Zin full of oak and bacon flavors, lusty in every imaginable way, but not for everyone. Aged 18 months in American oak and edging into Port territory, drink this in moderation or have a nap spot picked out nearby.——V.B.(3/1/2012)—— 85

I think by “l(fā)ust” they mean something like a decadent chocolate truffle with a gooey cherry liqueur filling. That’s what this sweetish wine, which has 15.9% alcohol, tastes like. It is awfully tasty, but it’s hard to imagine what you’d drink it with, except, well, a chocolate truffle.——S.H.(12/15/2007)—— 84
