That same alamandine garnet color i have come to expect. Aroma is fairly subdued by zin standards. Definitely some robust stone fruits like cherry and plum but surprisingly little cocoa or vanilla. Tobacco is providing all the wood notes. Flavor is definitely cherry and plum balanced by a fair bit of acidity and oak tannins. Sweetness is very restrained here leaving a moderate body dominated by fruit and letting the tobacco leaves finish off the palate.

A little sweeter on the palate, spicy on the front. Not as rich, jammy that is preferred with a Zinfandel

Close to being good but a little too sweet and jammy to really be considered as an option long term

Notes of black currant, dark fruit, blackberry. Sweeter than expected, but at the right level.
