My first impression was of celery seeds. Dark berries, pepper, a bit of vanilla? Nice but I would try other zin makers first, which I guess puts this in neutral territory, although I wouldn't turn down another bottle.

I enjoyed this. A briary, peppery, blackberry nose with plenty more pepper on the back end of the palate. A pleasant attack of pure blackberry with bracing acidity. I like that it isn’t overdone. The style for Zinfandel is changing in a good way.

Excellent wine, deep garnet color, earthy, chocolate and herbal nose, sour cherry palette and strong body and lingering finish.
