Big Smooth Old Vine Zinfandel Lodi 2017 750ML

TASTING NOTES:

This Big Smooth Zinfandel has intense aromas of plum, black cherry, fig, and beautiful notes of fresh bramble fruit. This big, ripe, and juicy wine is rich on the palate with lush fruit flavors framed by toasty coconut and Tahitian vanilla. The silky-smooth tannins are pronounced and mouthcoating, leading to a rich, full-bodied palate where juicy fruit flavors of boysenberry and pomegranate mingle with freshly shaved coconut and subtle brown baking spice notes – everything working together harmoniously, for Big Smooth satisfaction.
