Bella 2005 Big River Ranch Zinfandel (Alexander Valley)

Country: US / Big River Ranch
Variety: Zinfandel California
Winery: Bella / Alexander Valley

This vineyard has been the source of a string of rich, complex, classic Zins from Bella, and the ’05 is the best yet. It’s a big, lusty wine whose volume is pumped up with a dose of Petite Sirah. The flavors run toward blackberries, boysenberries, plums, coffee, carob and Asian spices.
