2005 was not that long ago, but the bottle age was very (positively) evident when Cath and I opened this last night. We were using the jumbo tasting glasses my sister Edie sent us last Christmas (that you can get your whole face in) and the nose almost made me want to sniff more than drink. However the taste was also great, with the youthful fruitiness mellowed and more complex aged red flavors joining the party. One of the best Zins I have had.

I am a technologist, foodie, photographer, gardener, music lover and political junkie. I have always saved ticket stubs, old business cards, doodles and other ephemera in shoe boxes, scrapbooks or desk drawers. Some things get saved and some are lost over time. I travel a lot, take many photos and try to keep notes of my experiences, whether interesting meals, great bottles of wine, or cool articles I have read. This site is my latest attempt to consolidate this content for the entertainment of my friends and family.
