Deep plum in color, this wine shows a range of aromas including dark cherry, plum, strawberry, and spicy oak. In the mouth blackberries, briar, and dark currants also show nicely. Overall, though, the flavor intensity is relatively low and the alcohol tends to take the upper hand. Good Zinfandel, but at this point it's too alcoholic for the fruit and intensity level. - HK 2011-03-12
