  To the nose, spice more than fruit: sage with slight cinnamon and thyme, plus blackberry > black raspberry > black cherry. After it opens up, get some very slight vegetal or earth, perhaps moss & bramble, but very slight - burnt paper which may be oak and sage combo. On the palate, equally the same fruit but cranberry enters the picture as it opens up. Spices of white pepper, sage, and black pepper with slight cinnamon. Very, very slight vanilla or toffee, perhaps from the oak. No notable leather or tobacco. Tannins are in the background but it is not flabby. Slightly on the thin side for a zinfandel with medium length. While might be past prime, still great QPR and went well with Mexican chicken dish.
