The deep, thick looking, ruby/purple color is enticing, and the cascade of berry fruit that soars from the glass is enough to make Zinfandel fanatics jump with joy. This medium to full-bodied wine exhibits exceptional ripeness, a beautifully etched personality, plenty of intensity, but not one sense of heaviness or excessively high alcohol. Moreover, I admire its purity of flavor. Drink this beauty over the next 7-8 years.
