Medium ruby in colour with a medium+ intense nose.

A well balanced & smooth Zin for under $15

Positives: This wine features light cedar, Christmas cake, raisins, plums, raspberry, maraschino cherry and candy apple. Medium body with low tannins, good acidity and a fairly long length.

Negatives: None

Interesting Point: Unusual to have a Zin at 14% alcohol and costing under $25.

Drink now on its own or pair it with My Thai’s Restaurant’s, via Go Cooking, Paneang curry with beef.

A fruit forward, juicy wine showing all of the typical elements seen in a mid range Californian Zin. This was easy drinking at the end of the night.
