4 out 5 blind tasters might hedge and say "grenache", given its heat, spice, leather and sandalwood notes. And hot as hell ABV. It overwhelmed even the gamiest goat and spiced grains dinner we paired it with... BUT it is built to "impress". What it lacks in finesse and pair-ability, it makes up with macho, look-at-me fruit and punch. It's the Dothraki of Zin, for better and worse.
