Ancient Vines California Zinfandel

This started as very buttery almost when it was just opened and ice cold. After we let it set for a half hour it eased up and became very palatable especially with beef. Not my favorite but not the worst mild red ever.

Comfort red for a rainy spring day in front of a fire. Not too thick, spicy.

Our go-to Cline which we can get in NH. Definitely prefer the tall rather than wide glasses, slight preference for unaerated. The glass made the biggest difference!

It us a softer Zin but flavorful and well balanced.

I really liked this wine! Had it with salmon and Greek potatoes.

Spicy peppery taste A decent inexpensive Zin

Since visiting Cline, I've been turned on to Zinfandel. This is one of my stand bys - always enjoy it. Enjoying it today with some barbecue pulled pork.

Fruity med bodied

Plum and cherry moving to cherry and vanilla in the mid palate. Some spice in the finish leading to some alcohol.

Decent wine, young. Better warmed than chilled
