Very tight nose, good body, intense berries, some spices, black pepper, semi dry, average finish, pretty good for a "by the glass" option at Churrasqueria Plataforma in NY.

Nice medium weight and relatively low alcohol Zin. Full fruit on the front end with some black pepper and it followed through with some soft, drying tannin on the finish. Served with some pan seared lamb chops and it made a nice match. Good, drinkable wine, and it's nice to find a Zin that still fits that description.

ZINFANDEL BYO Dinner (DUO, South Miami Avenue, Miami): Deirdre's wine, the second wine in the first flight. While only the normal bottling it showed quite well vs its more highly pedigreed brethren, and represents exceptional value. Consistent savory deep fruit flavors and a good finish, with muted bouquet.

Not the most exciting Zin, but very drinkable. An excellent value at $16 at Bevmo. I'm going back to buy more.
