  This medium bodied wine featured a nutty, blackberry jam aroma with flavors of raspberry, chocolate and spice. It was moderate in tannins but surprisingly acidic giving it a bold mouthfeel.
  
  We purchased this at the vineyard and will definitely look for it again.

  Aroma is bold, maybe blackberry (hard to tell with spicy food being cooked). Tastes quite bold with blackberry and blueberry - wow, quite good. Long berry finish, at the end getting a note of raspberry. General census here: Quite Good, structured, and bold. Well worth cellaring for 4 years.

  A big hit at a local wine tasting. More reserved than many zinfandel's with a balance of fruit, acidity and alcohol

  Color - Dark Garnet
  Nose - Not a real big nose maybe berries
  Palate - A bit dry with a slight hint of cardboard, possibly corked. Lightly acidic. The corked aspect did not show up in the nose but did so on the palate.
