This has always been close to the top of my "daily" zins. How-ever this bottle had a very distressing component. I call it the
"Smith Bros " curse. If I want a throat lozenge I'll take one. Don't care for the component as a major up front part with the fruit, spices, etc. I've found this in the background in lots of wines and it adds complexity. Hopefully this is an aberration. Wont dismiss this normally reliable bottling until I try another botttle. (Cough) WW
