This has meant my first steps into American Zinfandel...lovely, ripe, complex. Right amount of oak (not a fan of American oak), silky texture that is gonna make you beg for more. Fruit, spices, body. All in great harmony.

Mild aroma of dark berries. Inky purple. Initial explosion of plums berries and semi-sweet raspberry. Long mild dry tannic finish

Sweet at the front, finishes with complexity. Hints of eucalyptus. Different but in a good way.

An amazing fruity tone w mild tannins and notes of black cherry. You can smell the eucalyptus on the nose and taste the mild mint on the palate. Genuinely unique.
