Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Drink Wine and Giggle Gals rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

The Drink Wine and Giggle Gals are not above selecting a wine solely on the basis of name. Zinfandel lends itself well to word play and so we have Michael David's tantalizing Seven Deadly Zins. It seems zinfandel's only "sin" is trying to pass itself off as "America's Wine" when it has been proven through DNA fingerprinting to be identical to Italy's primitivo. Seven Deadly Zins is sinfully good, silky smooth and is best paired with Peggy Lee's immortal Fever and a burlesque glove tease.
Carla rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Loved the name of this wine as it fit perfectly with the name of my blog "Cooking With Sin." It has a charming poem on the back label. I enjoyed a bottle with my BFF on the deck of my cabin in my small vintage glasses. We savoured every sip.
