| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
PASO CREEK |
| Fairly deep purple colour. Intense, very spicy, slightly sweet, baked plum-cherry puree nose with lots of cedary notes. Fairly dry, medium bodied, spicy, ripe plum-cherry puree flavours with a lingering, cedar-tinged finish. A commercial, burger-inspired, crowd-pleaser with 13.5% alcohol and 7 g/L residual sugar. Not quite up to the riper 2013 (**) with 87.5-points released on January 9, 2016 at $19.95. |

| TASTING NOTE: Paso Robles is to Zinfandel as joy is to full: Zinfandel is this historic region's most famous variety. This one is crafted in an approachable, crowd-pleasing style, putting plenty of ripe, intense red fruit front and centre. It has good depth and a nice smoky edge. Juicy and fresh with excellent balance. Well-made and well-priced, this will be superb with grilled ribs with a spicy rub. (Vintages panel, May 2017) |
