Wine Review- Our Zinfandel Batch 86 is bursting with red fruit aromas typical of Zinfandel- Strawberry, raspberry, and cherry fill the glass. Batch 86 spent more time aging in Bourbon barrels than most of our Zinfandels and it shows in the profile: sweet components like caramel, toffee, and also some dry herb and spice notes are prominently displayed.
Wine Folly- A fruit-forward yet bold red that's loved for its jammy fruit and smoky, exotic spice notes. Originally from Croatia, Zinfandel is related to Croatia's #1 red, Plavic Mali. Zinfandel is ideal with Turkish, Moroccan, and Arabic cuisine, which brings out the grape's cinnamon-like spices. Try it with Asian Barbecue.
My Review- The first smell bold oak smell due to the aging in the bourbon barrels. Very bold smell of dark fruit like cherries. The taste is dry with the after taste of strawberries and a hint of bourbon taste from the barrels. Even though I didn't pair this with anything, I think it would pair nicely with a steak dinner or any type of red meat.
