Sunday, December 3, 2023 - This is a dark violet colored wine. The aroma is significant with fruits and cedar. The fruit flavors of strawberry, blackberry, cherry, and warm spices are incredibly intense along with a muscular body. Even with the heavy body the consistency is silky. The tannins are soft. The finish is persistent. This is a high alcohol wine (14.7%) indicating that the grapes were quite ripe. It's made from an undisclosed blend, but to my palate zinfandel dominates the blend. Many fine wine drinkers will scoff at such somewhat jammy "crowd pleaser" wines, but just drinking it alongside a spicy pizza gave me some respect.
