Tannins are sharp. The spice is real zesty. Love this as a reasonably priced example of Cali Zin. The fruit balance makes it soooooo good with BBQ

Really heavy, jammy berry fruit. Some chocolate, spice and stone.

As far as Zinfandel goes...This at the top of my list!
Deep dark garnet coloring; big delicious jam on the nose and palate.
It's not as spicy as some zins, which I like, but with such a wonderfully viscous mouthfeel, luscious tannin and dark fruity finish... Who cares!?
This would make one hell of a beurre rouge!
Highly recommended.

Well balanced, not overly jammy. Red fruits and some pepper spice.
Good for some Sunday football and pizza and wings.

Fabulous Zin! Wonderful balance of fruit and pepper. Get some now! It went great with a steak and cigar.
