Navarro Vineyards Zinfandel Old Vine Cuvée

Surprisingly not too young, but definitely on the fruity side of Zin. Not overly so, but it's a nice midway point.

Really nice zin. A little jam on first pour but got more complex as it breathed and the acidity came through.

As usual, Navarro does not disappoint. Drank this after dinner with no decant. Ruby red color. Red berry and tree bark on the nose. Flavor: Immediate fruit. Grapefruit. Cherry. Cedar (I’m drinking this inside a cedar log cabin so who knows). Mild pepper. Moderate tannin (more than I expected) that is quite prolonged. The end of the drink is savory. Ham. Very interesting wine.
