Covert Farms Zinfandel Grand Reserve (Organic) 2012

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaMedicinal dark cherry, black plum and lacquer open this big, jammy red, one of the few 100 percent zinfandels found in Canada. The palate carries forward the potent medicinal cherry notes where it is layered with leather, dried cherry, prune and herbed blackberry compote notes. Tannins, while well integrated with the dense fruit, tend to the harsh side and the finish comes across with some heat - best tamed with fatty lamb or well sauced venison.Tasted: 28 May 2015Tasted by: Prices:
