  Ripe blackberries with a hint of Cassis on the nose. Much lighter than a California Zin, but is full and mouth filling with tons of black fruit. The finish is incredible with an explosion of spice leaning to Herbs de Provance, long finish with an intense cracked black pepper that lasts almost two minutes. Decanted 30 minutes before tasted.

  Ripe blackberries, plums and spice. The palate is somewhat lighter than is typical for say, a California Zinfandel, especially those found in warmer climates. Troon's 2014 Applegate Valley Zin is full and lush, and laden with black fruit, perhaps what is most remarkable is the finish. An organoleptic explosion of dark chocolate, Herbs de Garrigue and unapologetic cracked black pepper afterglow that lasts for over a minute. Great QPR. Sample
