Description
'I don't know a lot about cigars. Like, I'm at the cigar store, and the man behind the counter says, 'What kind of cigars do you like?' I'm like, 'Uhh...It's-a-boys'' (Mitch Hedberg). If you, like Mitch, are no cigar expert, don't fret: you needn't be to enjoy this wine. The fruit was cold-soaked before fermentation to extract maximum flavour, and the wine was aged eight months, partially in French oak barrels, before bottling. Look for brambly dark fruit with vanilla undertones.
Tasting Notes
Surprisingly low in alcohol for such a full-bodied, full-flavoured Californian zinfandel. Pure delicious! Smoky with fleshy black fruit. Complex zinfandel in all its glory. Yahoo! Old vines truly do make a difference to the complexity and concentration of flavour, especially in zinfandel. Finishes with dark spice, smoke and pepper. Pair with spaghetti and meat balls. Pair with: steaks, ribs, grilled meats, pasta sauces, pizza, cheese, hearty stews, blackened seafood. Drink: 2013-2018. Score - 93. (Natalie MacLean, nataliemaclean.com, Nov. 2014)
