Bright purple. Deeply pitched dark berry compote and licorice aromas are complemented by notes of dark chocolate and singed plum. Ripe and broad in the mouth, offering weighty black and blue fruit flavors that show a hint of espresso. Notes of vanilla and fig paste come up with air and carry through a long, clinging finish, which features soft tannins and a touch of heat. This big boy checks in at 15.5% alcohol. (JR)

Editor's Choice. If only more Zins were this good! De Loach hits this one out of the park, with its fabulous wealth of wild berry, mocha, anise, spice, grilled meat and mushroom flavors. The high alcohol adds a wonderful varietal heat to the peppery finish.
