Nose has ripe plum, summer blackberries, moist garden soil, black cherry, faint eucalyptus and mahogany shavings.

Palate has ripe black cherry, ripe blackberry, ripe plum skin, faint milk chocolate with light tannins. Silky smooth, long finish, great balance of dark fruits to acidity, in a perfect spot today. Decanted 6H.

An early Father's Day with my parents, so I don't have to compete with my Sister & Nephew's in 24 hours, plus we'll have the better wine. 🤞

Savory Zinfandel (97%) with some Petite Sirah (3%) from one of the producer’s cooler sites in the Russian River Valley. Plums, rich dark fruit but not too jammy. Some earthy notes, graphite, smoke. Nice spicy finish
