“This tastes like a Zinfandel made by Henri Bonneau in Chateauneuf du Pape. Sweet kirsch liqueur intermixed with roasted herbs, pepper, spice box, and gamey aged beef notes all combine for a wine with great fruit, huge glycerin and volume, as one might suspect . . . . This is a ripe, heady, individualistic/singular style of wine . . . . I simply love it. There 572 cases of the Jackass Vineyard, which is a relatively large production for this site.”
