Excellent solo wine, rich in color, a full-flavored Zin. Paired with roasted garlic baguette, everyone remarked how delicious it is, accessible for even lighter Pinot drinkers, a really well-balanced Zin.

Fruit-driven, bordering on jammy but without the body to back it up. Much prefer Puglian Primitivo to most Californian Zin.
