2003 Seghesio Zinfandel Sonoma County - Dark reddish-purple color. Nose is of dark berries, spice, dried herbs, and some black pepper. On the palate, more of the same, with the added presence of a little vanilla and some oak. The flavors are not very concentrated. In fact, this bottle seemed rather lean and watered down, missing that ripe, jammy quality that I often like in this wine. Also seemed pretty tight, with a tannic, slightly astringent finish. Not sure if this was an off bottle or what, but the 2002 was a much better wine, in my humble opinion.

All the best,

Jean
