Vanilla, red fruit and spice. Some heat and a bit disjointed. Decent, but not great, Zin experience. Got this for $12, so it's a good QPR at that price.

Shows moderate plum and some earthy brush I usually associate with Amador. Mature, basic and soft with a sweet, low acid overall impression. Not a wine for the table but good on its own.

Good color. Not as spicy as I would want from a Zin. Fruit, tobacco and some aromatics, but not what I was looking for. Tannins light, alcohol in check. Zins have not been delivering what I was used to in the past. Not likely to get again

Very typical Zinfandel profile, both on nose and palate, with flavors of fig, dates, and dark fruits, but a little light weight, lacks backbone, boring on the mid-palate. Some nutmeg and other spices do come out on the finish.
