Here is a fine example of why Zinfandel seems to have found its home in Dry Creek Valley. Aromas of cherry and bramble berry mix with fall spice and black pepper, a are translated directly to flavors on the palate, with bright acidity and full body carrying everything through a well integrated finish that lingers long. I’d go for some grilled sausages and roasted peppers for a satisfying pairing.
