Collage Zinfandel - Shiraz 1999

California, United StatesGreen bean, spicy, peppery, earth, minty, gamey sausage aromas, a bit funky. Very round and soft with very light tannins on entry to the palate. Cassis, briar, green bean and mint flavours. Light tannin in the finish with peppery, coffee black berry notes. Good potential but a bit too vegetal and reduced. Perhaps better in a year or with some aeration. Tasted: 01 March 2002Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
