Rich and forward in jammy black cherry, raspberry and spice flavors, this Zinfandel drinks well now. It's a tannic wine, as you'd expect off Howell Mountain, but those tannins are refined and sweet.…
Here's a Cabernet Sauvignon from northern Italy that shows some budding tertiary aromas of polished stone and black licorice now six years after the harvest. You'll also get black fruit, tar and simp…
