Mesa Del Sol 2013 Zinfandel (Monterey County)

Country: US /
Variety: Zinfandel California
Winery: Mesa Del Sol / Monterey County

This Zinfandel from a warm area that hugs the Arroyo Seco appellation boundary (and will likely one day be part of it) shows baked blueberry, nutmeg, clove, licorice and turned loam aromas. Its dark plum and boysenberry flavors are strong, yet rocky mineral notes, cocoa spice and upright tannins kick it up to the next level.
