Liked this Zin. Cherry and berry flavors with a medium finish. Oak present, but just adds a slight sweetness. Too much alcohol burn for my taste, but it's a Cali Zin so to be expected..

Somehow I had two bottles that were not in my CT inventory. Had with brisket from smoker. This was excellent combination. Good fruit and structure, decent finish. Real zinfandel with a bit of age which it needs. I'd say dronk now. Medium weight. Had a 2010 oldvine RRV thereafter and that was a bit better.

Hartford is a really strong reliable source for Zin

Prominent note of sour cherries, some bramble. I personally enjoy the non-single vineyard zins better
