Wine Review: This hazy and deep garnet colored Zinfandel from Mauritson opens with a black cherry and cinnamon bouquet with hints of cedar, black pepper, and musty peonies. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with integrated medium plus acidity. The mouthfeel is balance, round, crisp, and clean with nice tension. The flavor profile is a fruit forward blackberry and black pepper blend with notes of oak and graphite. We also detected hints of red licorice, loam, and Ceylon cinnamon. The finish is dry, and its flavors, acidity, and well-managed moderate tannins are nicely sustained. We would pair this Zin with New York strip steak or with smoked brisket. Enjoy - KWGTP
