Note: I publish batches of reviews that I call Good Values Wine Picks. These are from the regular section of the liquor store rather than the Vintages section, and tend to be lower priced and the most widely available of all wines. The last four reviews I did were: April 12, March 1, January 3 and July 6.

Tasting note:

A juicy, chewy, delicious Zinfandel, bursting with black cherries, dark chocolate a little pepper. Full-bodied and smooth. Food matches: grilled meats, medium-strength cheeses.

Rick rated this wine as 72/100 with the following review:

Wendy finds it a bit harsh. While she was eating (steak), it was good but on it's own it is a bit acidic. Rick likes the taste although it is somewhat flat

Ruby red colour; ripe berry, spice aroma with a chocolate note; dry, medium to full body; well-balanced balanced with zesty acidity, lively berry flavour and spicy oak nuances; long finish.
