Heralded far and wide as one of the best deals in red wine, this Old Vine Zinfandel delivers dynamic characteristics along with a dynamic price tag. This dark wine broods in the glass, giving off rich berry scents. A warm plum spice fills the body of this wine, and a lingering, blossoming finish builds in spiciness and leaves a peppery, dryish feel on the palate with a light sense of oak. This big flavor doesn’t complement light fare and is more at home with red meat dishes, pasta with tomato-based sauce or flavorful cheeses and fruits.
