  Zesty zin with bold black fruits, spice, especially hints of pepper. Good finish. Pleasant wine.

  My brother blinded me on this. This started out very young and primary, but not at all jammy or raisiny. Had nice structure with a good acidic spine and fair amount of tannin. I was kind of fooled after drinking the very jammy Miro Gaddis vineyard Zin, so I guessed Bordeaux varietal, new world, 2017 red from Sonoma County. When my brother said "wrong" a light bulb went on in my head and I changed to 2017 Dry Creek Valley Zin. Oh well. Very good, if young, Zinfandel that I much preferred over the 2014 Miro. Give this a couple of years to settle down and this will be great.
