2008 Papapietro Perry Elsbree Vineyard Zinfandel
Medium ruby red color with a wonderful nose of boysenberry, dark cherry, cocoa and a touch of cardamom. It is elegant and balanced with flavors of dark berry and plum fruit, with a hint of spice and pepper, leading to a long full finish of sweet plum fruit and oak. Smooth tannins add structure and mouth feel, but don’t overpower. This Zinfandel is perfect for lighter meat dishes.
