I love the zinfindal wines from this Vina Robles. We opened this up to serve with a spicy lamb sausage. It was a fruit bomb-lots of taste-berry and jammy. It was too syrupy for me so I think it's more a style question.
The wine finishes Medium.

Picked up 4 of these for $15 without knowing what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised. Very nice wine with perfect Petite Syrah character. Decanted for a few hours, but it was also good right out of the bottle. Went very well with a pizza.

Inky black red color - very beautiful. On the nose, I get dark black fruits, some light toast, menthol, and a bit of bramble fruit with a touch of heat - very nice, actually. Bodyfeel is not as rich as the color would have you think it would be, but much of the same on the palate - plum, dark, dark cherry, a touch of anise and perfume. Finish is not very long - 10-15 seconds, but for $17, this is a screaming deal.
