Crimson in color. 15% ABV. Sublime nose of red fruits, licorice, citrus and mint. Medium body with mouth watering acidity. Well balanced with supple, tart fruits. Cherry, blood orange, strawberry and pepper on the palate. Nice length on the finish. Not generally what I expect from Carlisle with the tart fruits as opposed to bright, juicy fruits. Delicious nonetheless. Best over the next 1-2 years.

Open for business and I am here for it. Full body, med-lo tannin, highish acid. Round and opulent with bark berry brambles, floral-spicy notes. Med alcohol presence on the finish and a bit on the nose. Feels complete and was a pleasure to drink.

Light in body for a Carlisle Zin, but very tasty. Went very well with beef kabobs.
