A bargain Zin that's widely-available! Get some of this for weeknight dinners!
Eye: Dark, but not saturated, black, plummy ruby.Nose: Spot-on Zinfandel nose of spicy blackberry fruit, with subtle notes of resiny pine forest and minerals.
Mouth: Ripe, rich, and soft, with decent, though not great concentration. Excellent balance and ripe, mouth-filling fruit. A classic "spaghetti red."
Score: 88.
Cellar or drink? Drink over the next year as this is not built to age.
Price/store: I lost the receipt, but I vaguely recall getting this at Randall's on Weslayan for about $14.
