Rancho Zabaco Winery, Sonoma County (California) Zinfandel 2011

Jul 10, 2013

By Rich Cook

Here’s an easy to find, high-value Zinfandel that delivers complexity in a dry, bold, yet balanced style.  Blackberry, black cherry, vanilla and black pepper aromatics lead you into flavors of black fruit, pepper and mild spice, with secondary notes of dark chocolate and lightly roasted coffee.  Food-friendly acidity makes this wine a great accompaniment for summer grilling or bold cheeses.  Contains 3% Petite Sirah.
