My tasting rating (0-10):  7

---

Notes:  Ruthie had Lasik and looks... different.  I didn't dislike anything, but some were better than others.

The Cornerstone was opened a week earlier and subsequently gassed and refrigerated.  It had a decidedly shoe polish thing that you either liked or disliked; no in-between.  Eric gave it a number one vote and Steve and I gave it a number two.  Jim said he didn't bring a buffing cloth.

The Grey Wolfe had a notably Central Coast overripe fruit character that usually shows up in Central Coast zins.

The Burgess was surprisingly good.  Usually I do not think much of Burgess, but this one had good fruit to it and a nice finish.
