Rosenblum 1998 Rustridge Vineyard Zinfandel (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Rustridge Vineyard
Variety: Zinfandel California
Winery: Rosenblum / Napa Valley

Blueberry, spices, fruitcake, even a maple syrup note mark the nose of this fairly sweet Zinfandel. The somewhat candied quality to the berry fruit was not favored by all tasters, but the plush yet structured mouthfeel has significant appeal. Dark sweet-tart fruit and moderate, even tannins work together to provide a positive finish.
