Big fruit forward Zinfandel aged in Bourbon barrels after fermentation and then placed back in regular oak barrels before bottling. Very neat bourbon finish that's hot in the mouth with of but of caramel. More of an "experience" wine than anything else but good nonetheless. #zinfandel #bourbonbarrelaged

V13. Really good, and different . Upon pulling the cork, the toasty and caramel notes of a bourbon bottle came through, unfortunately they fade within an hour. Wine is big, dark blackberry with a peppery finish. It's almost like a dry port. Good TV watching wine, really liked it.

Sort of dumb. Sorry, but I love Zin and it's sort of a gimick to throw it in bourbon barrels. I rather just have a wine that is made well. Saying that, it doesn't taste bad, but there is better zin for the same price. Full, bitter finish.

Deep heavy cherry. Very smooth and no hint of Bourbon.

Bourbon flavors are more noticeable on the palate than the nose. Makes an already rich wine even heavier and more oaky. Finish is a little warm, too.
