What to Expect

Zinfandel is considered America's own great indigenous grape, even though its origins lie on the Adriatic coast. Planted throughout California and the Pacific Northwest, Zinfandel is at its best in warm regions with cooler temperatures during harvest. The wines can range from off-dry Rosés, White Zinfandels, and light bistro styled wines, to big, rich powerful wines - even luscious wines for dessert bottling. The flavors range from plummy to raspberry, although deep blackberry fruit and brambly spice tones are most common.

Winemaker Notes - Upon first taste it is profoundly clear why after nearly a century and a half, zinfandel vineyards are still being planted throughout Amador County. This wine is full, ripe, rich, and downright big without being out of balance. A foundation of dark berry fruit is built upon with wood tannin and spice. The nose bursts with stewed blackberries and vanilla beans. Intense flavors of blackberry laced with anise, mint, and cracked white pepper slide across your palate leaving a generous smooth mouthfeel.

Good berry tones and flavour. Can taste the alcohol more than I'd care to. For the price it's an average wine.
