Sarah’s Vineyard 2012 Synfandel Red (Santa Clara Valley)

Country: US / Synfandel
Variety: Red Blend California
Winery: Sarah’s Vineyard / Santa Clara Valley

The nose on this blend of Zinfandel and Syrah is a bit shy, with a touch of baked red cherry and hot asphalt. The palate is more intriguing, with stewed red cranberry, anise, brioche and cinnamon.
