Wine Review: This very dark ruby colored Zinfandel based blend opens with a gentle blackberry bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, and fruit forward. The flavor profile is a very tasty blackberry and stony minerality blend with notes of oak and black tea. I also detected hints of blueberry and black pepper. The finish is dry, and its flavors and mild tannins linger nicely. The red blend would pair well with duck confit. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Nose of toasty oak, strawberry jam, mixed berry pie, black tea, and baking spice. It has layered black and blue fruit on the palate, with milk chocolate, cherry, garrigue, and textured tannins on the finish.
