Castello di Amorosa
Zingaro Zinfandel Blend
Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
Like everything from the castle it is a very nice wine. Lots of dark fruit on the nose. Great tannins but light on acid.

2012 Il Brigante from Castello di Amorosa is an spin on zin. I mean to say it is phenomenal! Spicy and full flavor. Loads of black cherry and blackberry at first then followed by a tangy (not bitter) blast of perfection in a glass. The spice and vanilla take the tongue hostage and finish it off it a moderately dry oak and earthy ending. My God this is good wine. And affordable! Look out San Antonio winery, I have a new favorite!!!! Castello di Amorosa baby!!!!!!!!!

Jan 14th, 2018This is 2013 Boschetti Vineyard - old vine zinfandel by Castello di Amorosa. The color is spot on for a zin. The bouquet is blackberry pie. And Cardamon. The initial palate is pure blackberry and raspberry. Then comes the zing of a great Zinfandel. Spice Spice Spice! These people have it down. It is a light wine with an almost pinot noir ending however. It is not very dry but not sweet either. The ending is fast.

Good value wine under $100, wine experts aren't too fond of these wines, but for a everyday wine lover like Me, I think it's pretty good. Don't thinks it's worth $90 though, in my opinion .
