Italian Zinfandel. The colour is inky black and the nose is dark plum. Old enough that the tannins have smoothed out but it has that peppery taste you crave in a primativo. I get a burst of big jammy plum with pepper on the side. After the swallow the plum fades to a milder dark berry. Still deep and tasty with a hint of a sweeter note. Maybe red raspberry or red licorice

$15.49. Still pretty tannic. This will keep for a year or so. Restrained for a primitivism.

Well-balanced and refreshing, this light- to medium-bodied red offers a range of ripe cherry and plum fruit flavors underscored by hints of grilled herb, leather and star anise. Creamy, spiced finish

I like it lots. The grape is the great grandfather to the zinn. Has a dry finish. Tons of earthiness without being tannic

Cracked pepper aroma, dark berry. Nothing spectacular. (Schneiders DC)
