Tasting Notes:
With its deep, inky purple color, the initial earthy and smoky aromas are followed by those of blackberry, blueberry and plum. The complex medley of flavors includes dark berries, vanilla and herbs with a hint of black pepper. The sturdy but softly integrated tannins yield to subtle oak notes as the wine lingers on the palate. A light touch of acidity creates balance and elegance while retaining the juicy, exuberant personality that is uniquely Zinfandel.
