California Zinfandel Wine



Big, gutsy, quintessential California red that has become famous, ironically, as the basis for the white zinfandel, a blush wine. Red zinfandel has solid red fruit flavors, spicy, warm and alcoholic, often with hints of tar, licorice, and burnt cherries. Definitely not a finesse wine -- traditionally big, tannic, high extract, almost port-like; more recently, rounder and less severe, some emphasizing almost Beaujolais levels of fresh fruit. 99% are from California labeled zinfandel; Italian primitivo may be the same variety.

WS 88
A soft mouthfeel makes this wine both approachable and versatile with lots of ripe dark fruit flavors of blackberry and black cherry, complemented by bright red fruit flavors of raspberry and strawberry. Spicy notes of black pepper and vanilla add layers which allow the fruit to be the star.

Red Wine 

Not a poser Zin, but a real one. Big, bold, unapologetic. This 2011 rendition leads the charge with tantalizing aromas of black cherry, raspberries, and blueberries along with hints of oak. It then gets really serious with a cascade of fruit flavors, oh-so-flexible tannins, and a long, fruit-forward finish you’re not going to forget very easily. Will match a mega plate of red-sauce pasta or barbecued pork ribs.
