NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This dark and juicy Zinfandel from Cellar No.8 is a full-bodied, robust wine with a lovely nose of ripe, dark berries, plum, and dark chocolate aromas. The palate is full of concentrated flavors of blackberry, dark cherry, and black pepper, with a hint of smokiness and a smooth, lingering finish.
