NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Rockpile Jack's Cabin Vineyard Zinfandel coats the glass with an opaque ruby-purple color suggesting a wine of significant weight and concentration.The nose is explosive with intense and complex aromas of ultra-ripe and dessicated blackberry, black cherry, and plum. On the palate, a velvety tannins create a mouth-coating texture that is balanced with juicy flavors of espresso and dark chocolate. Notes of sweet spice linger on the long and lush finish.
