Medium ruby, spicy nose. Tart bold fruit with a bit of spice. Needs more tannins for balance. Not for the AFWE, but fruit lovers will appreciate the clean, clear rendition. Ready for drinking now.

Very very nice nose typical of Russian River Zinfandel. Dark berry fruits on the palate with a nice tannin balance. Good QPR.

Still quite nice, a deeply black fruited critter. Little CO2 on the palate. Quite enjoyable.
