  Maroon in color. 15.2% ABV. Bold nose of red fruits, cassis and pepper. Plush, ripe and jammy on the palate with perfect acidity. Flavors of raspberry liqueur, strawberry and marionberry. The finish is exquisite. Absolutely scrumptious Zinfandel. Drink over the next 2-3 years.

  Had a magnum with 6 people and some spaghetti with tomato sauce, didn't give it much time to open up.
  Great balance, long lasting fruit, no complaints. This wine made me look good with other zin lovers.

  Big, rich and racy, this is an interesting and complex wine that has active tannins, dark mixed berries and a finish that goes on and on. This Zin never disappoints and one of the best kept secrets in the Napa Valley.
