Highly-extracted but under control (barely). Nose has scorched earth, spice-spiked maple syrup, hot dusty sandstone, ripe blackberry, roasted fresh green herbs. Ripe on initial entry, then turns tannic and structured with chalky-textured tannin and discernible bitterness on the finish. Needs a big hearty winter stew. (Was a bit overpowering for my puttanesca.)

I liked it more than most but what 2 tastes are the same?
Anywho, Merriest of Christmas 🎄 ♥️

Dec 5th, 2020Beautiful Zin! Not overblown, more of an elegant zin. Subtle pepper/spice notes with bright red raspberry fruits. Balanced with nice acid on the finish. This is a great Zin to drink alone or with many different foods.
