Not a big, overbearing specimen for a zinfandel, yet it has an elegance about it that I appreciated. Aromas of white pepper, baking spices, blackberries and a nice briar note exploded from the glass. On the palate, the spices were at the same time more pronounced, yet subtle, and the dark fruit mingled with semi-sweet chocolate. The body is not as full as many zinfandels, and I would call it more of a light medium myself. The acidity was nice enough to make up for some of the lack of body. Different style of zin, but very good, nonetheless.

Big jammy zin. Very fruit forward, soft tannins.
