Tasting note

The opaque appearance with a red amethyst rim reveals ripe raspberry, blackberry, dark plum preserves, and hints of black pepper and clove. The palate is abundant with blueberry, sweet black cherry, and fresh herb notes of thyme, savory, and tarragon. The finish lingers with ripe tannins, a touch of ash, and black tea hints, offering a captivating complexity

Vinification

Matured for 8 months in French and American oak, 37% new. A heart and body of Zinfandel with nuance and complexity from Syrah, Petite Sirah and Grenache.

Food Match

You can't do much better than an aged tomahawk steak with plenty of salt and rubbed with fresh thyme.
