Wine Review: This slightly opaque and dark garnet colored Zinfandel from V. Sattui opens with a blackberry and black licorice bouquet with hints of dried coconut. On the palate, this wine is medium plus bodied with medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, and smooth with very forward flavors. Those flavors are a blackberry and cinnamon blend with notes of black cherry and clove. I also detected hints of nutmeg, dried coconut, and cedar. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and moderate tannins drift away nicely. I would pair this Dry Creek Valley Zin with barbecue marinated steak tips. Enjoy - Ken
