The 2006 Gnarly Head Old Vine Zinfandel is crafted from grapes from 35 to 80 year old vines. Robust berry flavors and exotic spice notes from the small grape clusters are balanced with French, American and Hungarian oak, which creates heady layers of vanilla and chocolate and a lingering finish. This luscious wine pairs well with beef and lamb.

Second met Zinfandel
Marshall

第二次见到zinfandel,也是酒会最后一个品尝的酒,酒与之前的DFV的cabernet类似,入口时候的辛辣度有所提高,其他都非常的类似.我不太喜欢把一个集团的酒在同一个酒会上品尝比较,因为会有太多的影子,让我最后难以比较最后一瓶酒. 平时对于新世界的酒喝的非常的少,可能只设计到南非的酒,因为南非久给我的...
