Tonti Family Wines 2014 Old Vine Zinfandel
Angels, this is such a layered, beautiful wine! Dark red in color with shiny glints of indigo. Very aromatic, with so much to explore in the glass. Up front aromas of cinnamon toast, vanilla, white pepper and spicy blackberry and raspberry jam lead to pleasing notes of chocolate caramel, licorice, dark berry liquor and dried herbs – mint and basil. At 15.9% alcohol, you’ll quickly note the viscosity gripping the sides of the glass. That said, the palate is rich and full, but SO fresh and in balance. Dark fruit, spice and licorice mirror the aromas, leading to a very enjoyable, long, silky finish. It is easy to see why this wine earned it’s Best in Class Gold at the LA International Wine Competition. You should really grab this while you can!
