| A lovely bottle of zinfandel is the 2001 Juvenile. The color
is ruby red at the core fading to a garnet rim. The nose has
aromas of cassis, bramble berries, cigar box and cinnamon
along with hints of cedar and pencil shavings. Pleasing to
the palate, this wine offers silky tannins, an ample body
and a fleshy consistency. Lively acidity keeps it fresh as
it covers the palate with flowing balance. A bit of age it
is developed with pure intensity of flavor that bodes nicely
with its developed complexity. Smooth and sensuous overall! |
