Classic Zinfandel aged in charred bourbon barrels. Dark purple (almost black) color. Aromas of black cherry, cola and Smokey vanilla. Bold dark berry fruit on the palate with bright notes of baking spices and vanilla. The finish is quite long and the tannins quite soft. Juicy and rich. Great accompaniment to smoked meats, especially the Armadillo eggs Mark S served with this wine. Thanks for sharing, Mark.
