Black cherry, blackberry jam, smoke, vanilla, toast. Robust, powerful Zinfandel with proper acidity and a long finish!

Black cherry, cola, blueberry, cinnamon, and toast. Lively and smooth, lighter tannin, and ruby red in color. This wine paired well with the pork roast served with kale salad, broccolini in hollandaise sauce, and roast potatoes. :) brownies for dessert!

Great nose and very smooth. Wonderful paired with the right meal. Enjoyed it at Left Bank on Santana Row.

Fruity nose and start. Great spice on the finish. Good solid Zinfadel, especially for the price.

Raspberry on the nose, full bodied but high in acid as well, could use a little more fruit to balance it out. Good wine however, but don't know that I would pay this much for it.

Fruit at the start, spicy finish. Just wish retardants didn't perpetually serve red wines too warm. Still, paired nicely with my filet mignon and grilled vegetables.

A terrifically balanced Zinfandel, this one has a nose of dark cherries and a hint of tobacco, with a broad palate of boysenberries and a hint of black pepper.
