  15.2% abv. Cork was not extracted cleanly. Earthy, slightly herbal, but with ample dark fruit to appeal to the pleasure taste buds. Tannins are integrated and the alcohol level is not that obvious. IMO this is quite vibrant for a 12-year-old wine. I had it one evening with beef and then the next evening with a Greek lamb, green bean and tomato casserole and a small baked potato. Quite attractive.

  A really delicious RRV Zinfandel, went quite well with the variance of food choices at the Thanksgiving dinner table. Drink now through 2020.

  Light, pinot style Zin with an extra dose of dark fruit and pepper. Pretty delicious, and drinking very well now.

  15.2% alcohol. Light red color. Pretty nose of spicy, dark cherry fruit, with a mineral streak. In the mouth, a bit less defined than it could be with a bit more time, showing a bit closed up in the minerals, but also has plenty of spice and fruit. Nice wine. B+
