The 2017 Bruce Patch Harris Kratka Vineyard Zinfandel opens with a very attractive aroma of black cherry, lots of baking spice, black pepper and licorice with hints of a minty, woodsy, earthy note.
Taking a sip reveals an absolutely delicious wine and a great example of Zinfandel. It features similar flavors to the nose wrapped up in a smooth, plush mouthfeel has great balance. And it gets even better as it has more air, especially by day 2. I love it.
It ends with a dry, extremely long, slightly chewy, juicy, mouthwatering and savory finish. This one just lasts and lasts.
