Tasting notes:

Powerfully built, with aromas of blackberry and cherry cola leads into a complex medley of fig jam, allspice and currant. This Zinfandel’s robust tannins frame a fusion of ripe fruit with vanilla bean, spice and a dusting of chocolate in the finish.

Winemaking notes:

The grapes were hand-harvested and fermented with native yeast in stainless steel tanks. Bottled unfined.
