Popped and poured. The 2018 Kunde Sonoma Valley Zinfandel pours a ruby color with a transparent core. Medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is expressive of red and black bramble fruits, black pepper and baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins and medium acid. Confirming the notes on the nose. Alcohol is bordering high. Finish is medium and just a touch hot. For a wine that’s available is grocery stores, this is a smart pick. Drink now through 2028, easy.
