I would agree with that overall impression. On the upside it is easy to find here.

If you are looking for a zin that is more likely to be affected more obviously I'd recommend a zin with more tannins like the Four Vines "Old Vine Cuvee" zinfandel ($20 here). To my pallet it's more reserved than the Gnarly Head with smooth layers of black berries and a hint of spice (probably pepper) and its taste changed more from glass to glass.

I would have to look around for this one.
