Tonesi Vineyard Zinfandel

Tonesi Vineyard Zinfandel Wine Details
Price: $36.00 per bottle

Description: After spending 47 months aging in neutral oak barrels, this wine is thoroughly pleased with itself. Dry raspberry, white pepper, cranberry & allspice, smoked bull’s blood & treacle, calling across the barroom for aged Cuban tobacco with all the subtlety of Hemingway singing an opera while describing Sunday’s bull fight. Quite reminiscent of the leather in a gents club in Havana, circa September 1944, a touch of blackberry pomade, & remarkably balanced on the legs despite its 17.29% blood alcohol level.
