Here’s a crowd pleasing Zinfandel that’s ready to drink. Aromas of blackberry, black cherry, raspberry, pepper and spice translate directly into flavors on the palate with good acid balance, soft tannins and a plush feel with a long spice driven finish that will pair beautifully with burgers or a marinated rotisserie tri tip.
