Ruby-red. High-toned nose showed some distinctly green notes initially, then del ivered enticing black raspberry and graphite. Very sweet, creamy and large-scaled zinfandel, with strong, high-toned berry flavors boasting impressive density and power. The huge tannins come late. Finishes quite dry, with a bit of heat showing.

Rating for United States-California: 93 (excellent)<br/><br/>Drinkability: drink now<br/>
