2012 Berryessa Gap Zinfandel


It's a Red Wine Sunday with one of my favorite Zinfandels.  The Berryessa Gap winery has been producing a very consistently good Zinfandel for the last 5 years.  Tried there 2006 vintage back in 2009 and loved it.  I've never looked back from then on, buying at least one or two bottles each vintage - excellent small winery.

Dark rich purplish red in the glass with a wonderful nose, full of that Zinfandel perfume.  On the tongue brambly blackberry with some nice tartness.  Smooth on the back of the tongur with a bit of warming goodness.  Should go well with the grilled Salmon and mango salsa on the menu tonight.

Cheers,
Jerry
