Sight: Upon decanting this supernatural spectacle, the wine reveals an arresting shade of deep, velvety crimson, akin to the curtains of a grand theater drawing back to unveil a spellbinding performance.
Nose: The aromas emanating from this glass form the wine’s overture, a captivating prelude. Notes of blackcurrant, plum, and blackberries provide the base melody, with overtones of black pepper and dark chocolate lending complexity and depth. Each inhalation brings forth a different nuance, much like each scene in an enthralling act.
Palate: The next Act commences with a vivacious burst of ripe berry flavors. Black raspberry and cherry are the leading performers, with cameo appearances from vanilla and spice. Midway, the Zinfandel’s Freakshow roots unveil a thrilling twist — nuances of mocha, pepper, and tobacco, blending seamlessly in a dance of bold flavors and textures.
Finish: The grand finale of this vinous spectacle lingers, with traces of smoky oak and ripe tannins ensuring a memorable curtain call. Each sip beckons another, making it challenging to put the glass down.
