    This is a bright, fresh and juicy version of the variety from a mountainous and indeed rocky appellation. A touch of leather rides over the proceedings, which consist mostly of red cherry, raspberry and cinnamon.

    Noticeable alcohol gives this Zin both heat and apparent sweetness. Combined with a superripe fruit flavor that veers into raisin territory, it turns rustic. Drink it with barbecue.

    A beautiful Zin, dry and spicy. Shows lush, intricate flavors of blackberries, black raspberries, anise, pepper, cola and cedar. A very fine interpretation of a dusty Sonoma Zinfandel.
