Just joined the Brown Estate wine club and really enjoying all of their Zins. Rich purple color and fruity aroma. Bottle never stood a chance.

Solid! Really lovely balance of fruit and spice notes. Medium-light body. Need more of this one!

Now I know why they sent me 3 bottles, jammy Zin flavor that's a signature of Brown Estate. My favorite of the 2011 vintage from Brown.

If you're looking for a jammy Zinfandel this is it. Rich notes of caramel and dark cherry. Great dark chocolate/cherry dessert pairing.

Day 2 of Brown and thank goodness I didn't drink it all last night. Good end to an otherwise lousy day in the tan cubicle.
