This is a sophisticated zin. It has a pale nose and velvety soft mouth feel. The wine reveals blended favors of in discernible but lovely fruit and minimal spice. This is a soft plush Zinfandel in a world of rough spicy competitors. We loved this wine but it should be enjoyed alone or with something far less flavorful than BBQ. Maybe grilled chicken or salmon. But do not dismiss this wine. It is wonderful.

2012 ZAP-time to prepare for the 25th ZAP Event. nose of dark fruit, ripe fruit, plum, spice, and forest floor, more of the same on the palate, almost always my favorite Wilson Zinfandel, terrific tasting, elegant, smooth, mouth filling fruit, big body, long, long flavorful finish.

fruitier style zinfandel - typical Wilson quality; uncharacteristc paler red color, mild fruit aroma definetely on the lighter side
