Deep, rich, and concentrated, this wine presents an inky dark color that is a forbearer of what is to come. Aromas of sweet blackberry, plum, and cassis leap from the glass. On the palate, the wine is dense and chewy with rich flavors of chocolate, espresso, and vanilla undertones. For all of its weight and dimension, this Late Harvest Zinfandel is also very elegant and polished. The finish lingers on and on without being overly cloying or heavy. A spectacular wine from start to finish!
