“Aromas of tart cranberry, cassis and licorice dominate the nose of this savory Zin.
The palate offers flavors of blackberry, plum, cinnamon and cedar with juicy acidity and some crunchiness of tannin. Especially with a little chill, this will pair beautifully with cured meats or salumi. - 90 pts.”
