This Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel is extremely dark with a deep, rich nose. Aromas of blueberry, black cherry and currant come forcefully, with delightful black pepper, vanilla and smoke on top. The palate has a distinctly savory side - sage, rosemary, white pepper - and the fruit is all dark and smoky. Tannins hit a sweet spot and will prove useful without getting in the way. The sip is smooth and delicious, as the best Zinfandels usually are.
