Deep ruby colour with aromas of plums, raisins and spice; full body, picks up smoke on the palate, long finish.
As Featured in TASTE Magazine, Summer 2012. This red is intensely ripe with aromas and flavours of dark, ripe fruit. A surprising complexity delivers a hammer blow to your taste buds. Aged for two years in oak barrels, this Zinfandel has a touch of spice notes. The winemaker blended in a small amount of Petite Sirah, adding depth of flavour while enabling the fruit intensity of the vineyard to show through. Pair this bold flavour with grilled portobello mushrooms stuffed with blue cheese and wild rice.
