Frei Brothers ‘Sonoma Reserve’ Zinfandel 2015
Dry Creek Valley. Sonoma County $24.95 (281758) 14.7% alcohol
Aromas of rich, ripe brambleberry entwine with savory herbs on the nose of this beautifully balanced sweet and tang zin. It envelops the palate with a medium-weight, nicely textured wash of black currant and pie cherry adorned with spice and hints of cherry clafoutie before the lingering finish layers on a refreshing tang. This will provide hours of sipping pleasure and pairs well with grilled red meat. Good value here. (Vic Harradine)
