Review:

Aromas of blackberries, black cherries, and strawberries meld with notes of sweet spice and pepper on the nose. Flavors of strawberry, cherry, plum, clove, cinnamon, and bit of spice emerge on the palate. A lush wine with nice balance and a hint of sweetness, it a fine, affordable choice for people that enjoy softer Zins without much spice.
