We stopped here on a recommendation from someone at another tasting room. The wines were ok but it turned out to be a real tourist trap tasting room. The people pouring quickly gave everyone the same spiel about each wine and weren't very attentive or friendly.
2008 Dry Creek Zinfandel
Big red fruit, pepper, lots of tannins, big, full mouthfeel
2008 Lily Hill Estate Zinfandel
Dark cherry, concentrated fruit, awesome caramel and chocolate notes on the finish
2007 Hillside Cuvee
Syrah, Petite Sirah, Cabernet
Deep color, tannins, lots of spice, cinnamon
2007 Big River Ranch Syrah
A big syrah, dark color, lots of tannin, mineral, smoky finnish, needs time in the bottle
2007 Big River Ranch Petite Sirah
Some zin added. Fruit forward but melts away quickly into huge tannins
2009 Late Harvest Zinfandel
3% Muscat added. Very jammy from start to finnish, like drinking berry jam
