Wine Review: This dark red colored Zinfandel from Seghesio is Excellent! It opens with a mild blackberry bouquet with a hint of black licorice. On the palate, this wine is full bodied, balanced and nicely coats your whole mouth. The flavor profile is a very tasty black raspberry with notes of oak, mineral and blueberry with a hint of bittersweet chocolate. The finish is dry and its well-managed tannins build up and stick around for a very long time. This Zin was perfect with our short ribs. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Bright aromas of dark cherry and black raspberry. Upfront fruit appeal supported with underpinnings of complexity and slight white pepper spice. Soft entry develops into warm, full mid-palate. Finish strikes ideal balance of tannins, fruit and acidity.
