Ripely fruited and worn smooth on the edges, 100-year-old vines express their complexities in this single-vineyard Zinfandel (splashed with nearly a quarter of perfumed Petite Sirah). Ripe, plump plum, perfumed cassis, boysenberry, dried violets, sweet tobacco and heaps of sweet and peppery spice fill this full-bodied red. Tannins are ripe and sueded and finish dry with a dusky bitter chocolate oak-driven tug. Full of body and alcohol; pour alongside braised short ribs with dried fruits.
