Sweetwater Sustainable Land Co 20006 Zinfandel

Sonoma County, Russian River Valley, Chalk Hill AVA
Sweetwater Sustainable Land Company, Santa Rosa, CA

Nose of Zin through and through with jammy (strawberry or cherry) sweetness and herbs plus smoke. Lovely flavors, strong and robust as a Zin usually is. Not deeply extracted and concentrated tones like Lodi or foothills Zin, but most certainly as zingy, pert, and spicy as they should be. Excellent wine. Hope the sustainability isn't just lip service but the wine provides great lip, tongue, and nose service anyway...
