100% Zinfandel, Late Harvest

Winemaker's Tasting Notes

Inky blue-purple in color, yummy deep razz-blackberry jam and luscious dark chocolate of oak spices, sweet but not clumsy, pleasingly balanced with a bit a tartness, not at all hotly alcoholic, bit of warm vanilla at finish. Residual sugar: 7.0%
