High in alcohol and a little hot and baked in fruit, this single vineyard wine typifies that style from a hot vintage in California. The stewed berry and raisiny-pruny flavors finish fully dry. This Zin will nicely complement a rich beef stew.

It’s hard to understand how they got this massively ripe fruit from grapes with only 13 percent alcohol. Theories abound. It tastes late-picked, almost porty, with currant, coffee and chocolate flavors, and is full-bodied and dry.
