2019 J.D. HURLEY ZINFANDEL
Tasting notes
A hearty two-vineyard blend from the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Hints of blackberry pepper jam on the nose, with the middle delivering black licorice spice, finishing with polished tannins. Try with bbq burgers or wood fired pizza. Drink now, great for the next few years.
