Country: US / Monhoff Vineyard
Variety: Zinfandel California
Winery: Von Strasser / Diamond Mountain District
Cabernet specialist von Strasser turns to the only Zinfandel vineyard on this mountain to produce this dense, layered young wine. Well-oaked, it shows smoky flavors of blackberry marmalade, red and black currants and peppery spices, and has the texture of a fine Cabernet. Drink now through 2013.
