Lot 205 Zinfandel 2006
Member Review by caandssmith:
A brilliant medium-full garnet in color, the wine shows its foursquare Zinfandel character right away in its assertive aromas of baked cherry and plum, spice cake, and touches of leather and anise. We have enhanced the wine's bold personality with some dramatically toasty oak. The wine's texture is smooth and easygoing, with plush tannins and plenty of flesh. Its flavor profile offers sweet notes of cola, baking spices and leather, along with its fine buoyant fruit. It would be a fine match at the table for poultry, pork, and light pasta dishes, as well as for grilled beef." ~Winery notes
Add winemaker's notes"Despite the enormous influence of California's wineries, too few specialize in premium wines at value prices. One that does is Cartlidge and Browne. Avoiding extra oak and other types of manipulation used by some vintners, Cartlidge & Browne produces fruity, pure, and vibrant wines that reflect varietals' personalities.
