Three Wine Company
Contra Costa County Zinfandel
Contra Costa County, San Francisco Bay, California, USA
Bright red in color.
Not too fruity on the nose with earthy notes and blueberries, blackberries and cherries .
Light to medium bodied and elegant.
Dry on the attack and fruity on the back of the palate with cherries, blueberries, black pepper, oak and wood.
Unbalanced with too much acid for the tannins, yet enough fruits.
Medium finish with nice silky tannins.
15.2% alcohol by volume.

I don’t normally like Zinfandel, but I liked this. Maybe because it wasn’t such an oaky fruit bomb. A little hot, but other than that, a fairly balanced and pleasant wine.

Loved it - better on the 2nd day after proper decanting - red fruit with long, smooth finish.

"Nice strong aromas which I could sample from almost a foot away from the glass. Primarily black fruits with a touch of floral on the nose. The taste combines blackberry jams, 5 spice, hibiscus, and butterscotch. Strong alcohol, but not enough to detract from the bottle. Very long persistent finish."
