  ENGLISH:
  Nose: Compact, hearty, plum and blackberries, with fine wood notes, cedar wood, some black pepper, fresh and juicy, some green herbs
  Taste: Very plum-focused, nice and juicy, just the right ripeness, nice present but not too strong acidity, nice and full yet with a light body, typical Zinfandel, never overwhelms you, some vanilla, blackberries, thyme, some black pepper on the finish
  Comment: It could be a little more complex on the nose, but overall a perfect 15€ Zinfandel, relatively light body, high juiciness with the necessary, subtle spiciness.
  
  GERMAN (ORIGINAL):
  Nose: Kompakt, deftig, Pflaume und Brombeeren, dazu feine Holznoten, Zedernholz, etwas schwarzer Pfeffer, frisch und saftig, etwas grüne Kräuter
  Taste: Sehr Pflaumen-fokussiert, schön saftig, genau richtige Reife, schöne präsente, aber nicht zu kräftige Säure, schön voll und trotzdem mit leichtem Körper, typisch Zinfandel, erschlägt einen nie, etwas Vanille, Brombeeren, Thymian, etwas schwarzer Pfeffer im Finish
  Comment: In der Nase könnte er etwas komplexer sein, aber insgesamt ein perfekter 15€ Zinfandel, relativ leichter Körper, hohe Saftigkeit mit der nötigen, dezenten Würze.

  May 29, 2023 - Deep ruby colour. Pronounced and developing nose with dark plum, blueberry, vanilla, blackberry, charred wood, chocolate and smoke. Pronounced taste of dark plum, blueberry, blackberry, vanilla, charred wood, chocolate and smoke. Medium long and dry finish. Medium (+) acidity. Medium tannins. Full body. A good Californian Zinfandel that lacks some complexity and length. Drink now or over the next couple of years. Goes well with duck or grilled red meat.
