2013 Zingara. A wine of two halves - ripe, fruity (cherry/blackcurrant) forest floor funk into heavy tannin + acidity and an astringent finish.

Dense black cherry on the nose with ample tart acidity and tannin on the palate.

Blackberries and rich tannins. Untamed and big flavor (low alcohol) but delicious. Drink with food. 2012 vintage.

Big dark fruit without being sweet. Strong cherries, blackberries and maybe plum. Deep expression. Tannins and grippy (leathery) but still light in alcohol.

Wow, meaty. Beef jerky, but opulent beef jerky, ya know? Animal house. Nice weight.
