Steve Ledson’s crew bring us this powerhouse Zinfandel that somehow manages to be elegant in its strength. Black cherry and briary fruit are enhanced by well-integrated pepper, and a touch of heat in the finish keeps the fruit bright. Prepare the Porterhouse! Rare, please. A Platinum Award winner at the 2021 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
