Gigantic fruit bomb with rich caramel finish. This Rombauer is loaded with baked blackberries, plums dusted in pepper that doesn’t beat around the bush to get your attention. Tried against the Caymus Zinfandel (non blind). Though the 2013 Caymus has a 4 years advantage we couldn’t help but prefer it over the 2017 Rombauer. Not to say the El Dorado isn’t good, it definitely is and way more accessible than tying to find the limited produced Caymus.
