this limited release (300 cases), first-ever zin from columbia crest points to the rising prominence of this quintessentially californian grape. in washington's wahluke slope, zin ripens well without turning into a port-like substance. tightly-defined raspberry, blackberry and plum fruits, scented with violets and juicy with fresh acid, take to the new oak aging well. it's a balanced mix of berry, barrel and crisp, palate-cleansing acid.
