Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days and fairly consistent throughout. The 2023 Zinfandel CCC pours a deep ruby/purple color with a magenta rim and a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe and tart black, red and blue fruits: brambles, plum, green herbs, freshly opened beachball, some black pepper and dry earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. Drink now through 2033.
