This is anything but your typical jammy, ripe, high alcohol California Zinfandel. If tasting blind one could be forgiven for thinking this is a rich, ripe Tempranillo. Ruby red in the glass, but light intensity for a Zin. Medium intensity on the nose with blackberry, blueberry, strawberry, a hint of bramble and sweet tart candy. Dry on the palate with plenty of mouthwatering acidity. Strawberry, blueberry with a hint of bittersweet chocolate and vanilla. Rich yet crisp and clean. Long finish. This is not your dad's Zinfandel.
