Dark, ruby-red color with violet highlights. Intense and fragrant bouquet with a rich array of red and black fruit aromas and flavors. Harmonious and velvety on the palate. Great balance and structure. 100% Zinfandel
Personal Tasting Notes:
Despite being 100% Zinfandel grapes this wine was not in the least bit sweet and was very spicy, with a strong bouquet. This wine had an aroma of sharpie markers, blackberry and raspberries. These aromas properly represented the flavors of the wine which had strong hints of berries particularly blackberries and raspberries. The wine was tasted without food but would need to be paired with cheese or some other food to take away some of the bitter and spicy, extremely long linger.
