Truchard Zinfandel 2008, Carneros, Napa Valley, California, USA



Wow, what a beautiful bouquet on this Zin, with aromas of blackberry, plum, wild berries, savoury spices, floral and herbal notes. On the mouthfeel, medium-full bodied, with generous alcohol at 15.3%, but well balanced by jammy ripe berries, crisp acidity and smooth tannins. The finish is long, enjoyable, with sweet seductive fruit and savoury flavours. A very elegant, savoury and tasty style of Zinfandel. Strongly recommended, score 90 points.

Purchased March 17, 2012 LCBO New Release (054858) at $25.95
