Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

Blend of mostly Zinfandel with Petite Sirah added, deep Ruby with aromas of dark fruits, cigar box spice, floral and earthy notes. On the palate flavors of sweet raspberry and cherry with smoky meaty spice, pepper and floral notes wrapped in lively acidity. Fine sweet gritty tannins, long finish, great structure ending with fruit, spice, cacao and slight earthy tones.

Nose is earthy like damp dirt after a rain. Bold start with a body that slightly lingers. Taste is hard to pin point but quite enjoyable. Dryness is balanced. Leaves you wanting another sip.
