Lone Madrone 2012 Martinelli Zinfandel (Paso Robles)

Country: US / California
Variety: Zinfandel
Winery: Lone Madrone / Martinelli

Remarkably strong cinnamon characterizes the nose of this old-vine wine, which also shows red and black cherries, potpourri and gingerbread on the nose. Black raspberries, cranberry-pomegranate juice, dark chocolate, purple flowers, black pepper and cardamom entertain the palate, which also offers decent acidity and grip, but finishes quickly.
