Raspberry, stems, white pepper. Clean and pure, just like the Del Monte ketchup behind it.

Surprisingly vibrant. I'm continually impressed by these old Amador zins. I'm starting to think that many zins go through an awkward stage from 7-14 years of age or so and come out really nicely after. I can't imagine that this one was ever this good young, however.

Everything I love in Amador Zin. Fruit is beyond the standard berry jam of some. Tastes of Marion berries and Bing cherry. Chewy and zingy too. Nice stuff.
