One of our favorite small production Zinfandel producers, Brown Estate makes a delicious Zinfandel (60%) Cabernet (40%) and Petite Sirah (5%) blend that will delight Zin and Cab fans alike. Limited. Dense crimson color with a blue scarlet rim leads to a fragrant nose of exotic Asian apple blossom, crushed rose petals, and cloves. This wine delivers a mouthful of soft, silky texture that gives way to ripe, forward fruit balanced with layers of complexity. Cascading flavors of blackberries, black cherries, cappuccino, and tobacco lead to herbaceous earthiness with undertones of big game and fresh sage and rosemary. This is a dark, deep, brooding and seductive wine that glides over your palate toward a long, elegant finish. The perfect wine to pair with boldly seasoned grilled meats and garlicky potatoes with coarse ground mustard, or a comforting beef pot pie.

Tasty. Quite drinkable - especially once it has opened up for a few hours. Tons of fruit.
