90?-Oct 2010. This is a tricky one since it doesn't taste like a typical Zin. It tastes like a pinot noir... :)
on the nose-strong strawberries notes with hints of oak. On the pallet - medium+ body. Straberries, plums and a sweet finish. extremely pleasant and calling for more. Great value.
Deep lustrous red to the edge of blackness, the alcohol-forward (14.9% alc/vol!!!!!) nose is jammy and smokey with scents of charred wood and cloves. Very full-bodied and slightly off-dry, the funky charred flavor fills the mouth with dried fruits and concentrated vanilla extract. The result is an overpowering complex finish that creates the urge to wash my mouth out with Borax. I love a lot of California wines and honestly appreciate a good Zinfandel, but this one is not exactly the pick of the litter
