Ancient Peaks, Paso Robles (California) Zinfandel 2012

Aug 20, 2014

By Rich Cook

This dry Zinfandel shows beautiful aromatic development without going into the sweet zone. Raspberry, dried red berries and spice box with a light leafy note come through on the nose and in the mouth, with complementary charred oak and pepper added to the dry palate. A nice meaty note and a bit of dill come forward in the finish. This is a match for your end of summer grilling.
