Shop Review: "A multi-vintage blend of Zinfandel, Petite Verdot, Petite Syrah, and Merlot that is full-bodied and fruit forward with a spicy and complex finish. This wine has been partially barrel aged for eight months in American and French oak." - Vintage Cellar

My Review: This wine was a tiny bit dry, but not as dry as the Becca wine. Again, this wine had pepper-like hints to it and was a little bit spicy. I did not taste any of the fruitiness to this wine because the other flavors seemed to be more profound and "in your face".

Food: I drank this wine at the Vintage Cellar tasting, so I was unable to pair any foods to this wine.
