Zin love.
Wednesday wine with this gem.

2017 William Selyem Bacigalupi Zinfandel. Winemaker notes describe this wine as showing boysenberry and black fruits mix with notes of clove and cinnamon. Aromas of purple flowers mix with a complex array of citrus and wood spices that add layer upon layer on the nose. The palate offers wonderful juicy flavors of raspberry, plum, and a gamut of black fruits. Round and silky on the palate, the Bacigalupi Zinfandel always offers an open-knit architecture that is easy to love. The sneaky tannic structure adds depth all the way to the elegant, loamy finish.

This wine paired perfectly with homemade burgers and dinner conversations. Can’t help but smile while enjoying this one. The 2017 is drinking perfectly IMO.

Plush is really the only word needed to describe this wine. I tasted this wine over the course of three days and every day it got better. Plush elegance if that could be a thing. No overly jammy with this one.

15.1% ABV, but doesn’t come across that high. This wine gives you ripe fruit and silky mouthfeel.

This wine pairs well with Stone Temple Pilots - Plush.
