Quite a nice deep purple hue with aromas of classic Zinfandel with pretty much straight berries with a touch of savory spices at the rim.
Palate-- Surprisingly nice first impression with loads of fruit up front, a relaxed even silky structure, and while the finish is pretty quick it is none-the-less Zin all the way.
In all my years of tasting which goes back to the mid 70's I have had probably 5 times as many Zinfandels as any other varietal. Why? Because I love them and they are relatively unknown to the masses meaning they are bargains to buy.
Rosenblum was the Undisputed Heavey Weight Champion of single vineyard Zins and you paid for them, ($25-$45) a bottle. They were worth it! But they were bought out by one of the huge conglomerates and their 25+ iterations of Zinfandel have been reduced to a handful.
So this Sam's Club Zinfandel priced at $8 a bottle is a great value!~ So raise a glass!!! Thank you Sam Walton...
