A plush, complex Zinfandel that’s long on varietal flavors and easy on the oak influence. Cherry and raspberry fruit and some light citric notes balance the pepper and spice, and the finish brings a little complementary dill into the mix. Very solid. A Platinum Award winner at the 2017 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
