WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
The color of this wine is truly immortal. Its rich, dark color goes on and on and on! The aromas of big, jammy, dark fruit medley along with raisins, cherry pie and sugar plum marry together to put your olfactory senses into a new dimension. The palate is wrapped in a mysterious, velvety layered mix of sweet blackberries, raspberries and luscious, juicy fresh picked ripe plums! The rich, mouth filling characters that immediately jumps out at you is that of mom’s homemade baked cherry and strawberry pie.The wine has moderate oaky tannins and juicy acidity. This amazing old vine zinfandel will pair will all foods, from the gourmet burger on the grill, to a nut crusted seared ahi.
TASTING NOTES:
Toasty, white-peppery aromas lead to fascinating black-pepper and beef accents and intricate fruit flavors in this full-bodied and moderately tannic wine. Blackberries and blueberries show good depth on the palate and linger nicely on the finish.
