From the Louis M. Martini famed vineyard. Was one of the more balanced 16.1% alcohol Zinfandels I've had Richard said the had watered it down before fermentation to tame the alcohol.

Yumville! Unfined and unfiltered- and it shows. Gorgeous, rich, opulent and remarkably expressive throughout it's evolution. Bold and impressive.

Perfect for BBQ. Big dense and well balanced. One of the best zins I've had in a long time!

16.5/20 (91/100) Ликёрный аромат черники, черешни, гвоздики и шоколада. Тельное с довольно высокой кислотностью и интенсивными, суховатыми танинами. Ягодное во вкусе. Приятный, мощный, насыщенный и, всё же, слишком прямолинейный зин.
