Ministry of the Vinterior 2009 The Messenger Old Vine Zinfandel (Amador County)

Country: US / The Messenger Old Vine
Variety: Zinfandel California
Winery: Ministry of the Vinterior / Amador County

Surprisingly unripe for an Amador County Zinfandel. Smells like dried twigs, turns obscure and heavy in the mouth, with sweet cherry pie and prune flavors, framed in hard, green tannins.
