Wow this was magnificent. Decanted maybe an hour; this paired wonderfully with 48 oz Flannery tomahawk. Cassis, ripe plum, and violets on the nose. Some acidity and structure on the palate with super plush finish. My SIL was like “this is way too easy to drink.” Bottle didn’t last long.

Pagani Ranch has produced some epic Zins. Always remember the story there if the owner telling folks that there are enough grapes for the deer and winemakers, and not to worry about keeping the deer out.
I backfilled a decent parcel of 13 bedrocks from thewineclub last year for less than release prices; still have one more pagani and 3 each of monte rosso and ode to lucien; will have to open some more soon.
