distinctive as always, this is another powerful zinfandel from martini, which has a long history with this mountain vineyard. the cool 2010 vintage was kind, bringing the wine to its usual high-alcohol superripeness, yet maintaining vital acidity. notes of raisins, blackberry jam and chocolate are all found in this heady, porty wine. drink now with rich barbecue and stews.
