Fetzer Vineyards
Valley Oaks California Zinfandel
Ликерно, красные ягоды, сладкая красная слива. Вкус сладкий, полный, чуть попсово, массово, но не вызывает идиосинкразии. Вполне симпатичненько

3 people found it helpfulDec 27th, 2019Meeting friends outdoors, wine 3. No detailed notes taken (again!).
Juicy and fleshy, enjoyable Zin, that was a bit closed at the beginning.
Deep scarlet red, bricky red rim.
Grasped aromas of licorice, burnt tyres, ink, earth and bunch of black berries (black gooseberry, blackthorn). Later opens to show a mix of red and black fruits with roasted cashew, cinnamon, crushed pepper and jams.
Interesting palate. Medium(+) body, sensible tannins, vibrant acidity. Grasp of small forest berries (lingonberry, wild strawberry, cherry, cornel), wooden bark, vanilla croissant.
Lengthy finish mirroring palate.
Paired tender yet spicy pork shashlyk.
85/100
