We have been drinking a pretty good bit of the 2006 Zen of Zin and it has been consistently very good. We liked it enough to make it an everyday wine. Yesterday I picked up a bottle of the 2007 to go with some grilled hot Italian sausage.
The 2007 is still very good, but it definitely shows that it is younger. There is more fruit and less spice than in the 2006. It is also a bit more full-bodied than before but I would still call this medium-bodied overall.
These are both good wines, but of the two the 2006 matches our palates better.
Cheers!

FYI, I quoted you on my own review of this wine. You've got me intrigued about the 2006 vintage. I was slightly less enthralled by the 2007 than you were, but I could see its potential.
