Beautiful example of a riper-styled Zin. Classic nose of blackberry, brambly notes, gravel, and a little maple syrup. Rich and weighty, the fruit accented with earthy peaty notes and a bit of bakers chocolate. Long, savory finish.

As inexpensive Zinfandel goes, this is pretty good. The initial fruit is slightly jammy, leaning towards red raspberry jam. That it is California Zinfandel is unmistakable in the nose. However the finish rescues this wine and actually makes it pretty decent to drink. The tannins are soft but give nice structure and there is reasonable acidity to boot.
