2017 Roasted Slope Vineyards Zinfandel Dry Creek Valley

Tasting Notes | The 2017 Zinfandel shows bright aromas of raspberry with notes of spice and pepper. It is rich and well balanced with ripe flavors of red plum and wild strawberries. The wine finishes remarkably long with spicy vanilla and brambly flavors lingering. This wine typically drinks best in its youth, and being recently bottled, could benefit from another year or so of bottle aging before being at its best. Drink over the next 4-6 years.

Suggested Food Pairing |    The balance, elegance and firm acid allow a little more versatile than a lot of zinfandel………BBQ of all kinds, Skirt steak, medium cheeses
