Savannah-Chanelle 1999 Zinfandel (Santa Cruz Mountains)

Country: US /
Variety: Zinfandel California
Winery: Savannah-Chanelle / Santa Cruz Mountains

Good Zins from this appellation are not common, which is too bad, considering how fine this one is. The fully ripened berry and spice fruit is married to intricate, lacy tannins, and the wine is dry. Despite the big flavors, it has an airy, feathery quality, anchored in crisp acidity.
