Top Notes For
Tree Kilpatrick

Label makes me dizzy to look at. Screw top convenience . Nice color. Rusty fire truck red. Smells a bit like echinacea tincture and bitters. Fruit too. Flavors are on the lighter side for Zins, but there’s some grip and complexity there. When I first had it, it seemed like a fruit bombed standard Zin, but in second impression it’s got a lot more to offer. Herbal, zingy and chewy. This is a intriguing cooler climate Zin with good funk.
