Maybe a touch sweet for a Zin but a darn good value for dollar.

What an interesting Zinfandel! It's dryer than you would expect, so definitely not the stereotypical jammy style, but it still has that gorgeous fruit quality. Blackberries predominate. I would definitely get this again and I'm so glad I purchased.

Needs a bit if time to open up, but once it does, a lot of fruit on the palate with a nice mildly tannic finish.

Brought on Zena's 2015 holidays party. Played "cards against humanity" that Elena brought. It was a purely joyous day

Surprisingly good. But maybe low expectations helped.
