Deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits and spice for this off-dry Zin. On the palate jammy ripe blackberry and blueberry fruit with rustic spice and a bit of sweetness. Soft tannins, medium finish ending with a spice pepper tang.

Yummy juicy jam on a graham cracker. Unfortunate alcohol burn in the back of my throat. Pretty color, though.
