2002 Rosenblum Zinfandel San Francisco Bay Continente Vineyard - Dark, inky red in color. Intense and bright nose of mixed wild berries, pepper, star anise, and creamy vanilla. Flavors of blackberry, black cherry, raspberry, pepper, and vanilla. The texture is very smooth, if not somewhat flabby. The tannins are very fine and soft. The finish is of medium length, with a little bit of heat, but finishing with a spicy licorice note. Nice nose and good flavors, but just missing a little bit of something in structure and balance. But it is an easy quaffing Zin with a lot of nice fruit for $16.

All the best,

Jean
