Wine Details
Fairly dark for a Zinfandel, Lot 636 offers up a ripe, spicy, peppery nose of raspberry and boysenberry with plum, dark chocolate and raisin. Plush, juicy, full-bodied and accessible on the palate with mixed berry, vanilla and spice enveloped in velvety tannins and long finish.

Cam Confidential
Sourced from a fourth-generation family producing terrific Zinfandel from 30-50 year-old head-trained Zinfandel vines, Lot 636 is an archetypal expression of California Zin. Aged 16 months in French and American oak barrels, it's a pitch-perfect example of the varietal in its purest form – rich fruit, pepper, and spice are all there in a beautifully aromatic and sumptuously structured wine that delivers big on complexity but also nails the fun factor. $20 under its original winery label.

Buying once again...
This has been a versatile wine for us - from pizza to pasta to burgers (even veggie burgers) this wine shines. And a great price!

Nice kick
This zin has a nice little kick of spice and pepper, but it's not overly spicy, dark, ripe fruit. It's a great, velvety partner for red meat dishes like braised short ribs.

Comparatively Speaking
Comparatively speaking, I adored 630 Zinfandel from Dry Creek Valley. It had such bold levels of flavor that it was necessary to take your first sip under the tongue not to have the black pepper kill the other taste buds.

Good not great
Just had the Zin 683- Spring for that if you are looking for a fuller finish!. Good just not great. The 683 had a better finish and more memorable on the palate.

Not Impressive for me
I didn't particularly care for it. I know it's just a Lodi quaffer, a reasonably priced table wine, but I found it a bit harsh and bitter. I've had better zins under $10 from the grocery store.

Red Zin
Great red zin. Full of flavor, robust but not heady. Nice on the pocket book. Have already purchased more.

Pretty smooth
I would let it rest a bit. I opened the bottle and tasted, then let it sit an hour or so and it was very good. I’d buy it again.
