9 years of bottle age brings smooth tannins surrounded by red stone fruit. Add sirloin steak with Canadian Steak Seasoning, Roasted Pablano Peppers, and Jarlsberg Swiss Cheese and you have a marriage made in Heaven.
Dark, muddled berries. Deep raspberry flavors. Some vanilla. Maybe that hint of mint another reviewer mentioned. Nice spice, but I’m having a hard time picking it specifically. Good low acidity and light tannins. Just an amazing Zin.

Crimson in color. 14.9% ABV. Awesome nose of brambly black fruits, licorice and pepper. Full bodied with exquisite acidity. Richly textured and layered with tremendous mouthfeel. Blackberry, black cherry liqueur, cocoa and pepper on the palate. Tremendous length on the finish. Just an exceptional Zinfandel from a historic vineyard. Best over the next 2-4 years.

Best on night 3, pepper and dark fruit. Much more expansive as time went on.
