Review:
Inviting aromas of cherry and bramble fruit mingle with notes of sweet spices, anise, and vanilla on the nose. A sip unfurls flavors of black cherry and blackberry accented by suggestions of pepper, clove, cinnamon, and vanilla. An elegant but layered wine, it’s for people that prefer a softer style Zin over robust and peppery.
