1999 Steven Bannus Cellars Zinfandel Dry Creek Dry Creek, Sonoma, California WB Rating: 81 Alcohol by volume: 14.6% Price at time of purchase: $9.00 (Beverages and More.) Type: Zinfandel Principal varietal(s): Zinfandel This well-priced Zin has the nicely rounded mouth feel of a higher priced wine, though it lacks the flavor density and extraction to rate a higher score. Oak, licorice, and dark berries are displayed in the nose and flavors, though a straw/vegetal component sneaks into the midrange. The tannins are in line to give an overall balanced feel to the wine. Not bad for an everyday Zin. - WB team 2003-04-30 [Back] |
