J. Rickards 2010 Ancestor Selections Zinfandel (Alexander Valley)

Country: US / Ancestor Selections
Variety: Zinfandel California
Winery: J. Rickards / Alexander Valley

Overripeness gives this Zin the raisiny, pruny taste of port, but being dry, it doesn’t have port’s saving grace of sweetness. It’s also very tannic. High alcohol and dessicated fruit define it.
