Fairly well balanced. Baked cherry pie, raspberry, blackberry, a bit of that bramble and spice you'd expect. Good acidity, body is lighter than I was hoping for, but overall quite nice.

This more of a easy drinking Zin. Not a lot of spice, but enough fruit to be worth drinking on a regular basis.

Raspberries on the nose. A very good Zin. Carol knows how to make a Zinfandel.
