Dark ruby in color, but Not much on the nose.
Blueberries, figs and blackberries on the palate, with black pepper.
Nice long finish with leathery tannins.
Will buy again. This Zinfandel Reserve,
from Sonoma county received 90 points from RP for the 2010 vintage. But although it is delicious and drinkable now, I believe it's still young.
Will definitely buy again!

I let this one breathe for an hour before drinking. Really good value. For the price point it's very good.

Definitely taste the pepper in this. I like it, but it's a bit spicy/peppery. I'd buy it again
