Witch Creek, El Dorado (Sierra Foothills, California) Zinfandel 2013

Jun 15, 2016

By Rich Cook

This winery is under new ownership, and one to keep an eye on.  This Foothills Zinfandel shows aromas of raspberry, cherry, mild oak char, fall spice, and touch pepper.  On the palate, it’s dry and rustic in its tannic profile, with great pepper and spice blending with the rich fruit.  It’s long and food friendly. Nicely done!
