JOSH Zinfandel 2021 "Special Reserve" (Bourbon Barrel Aged)



Ruby, garnet hue with a big bouquet over the glass with lovely brooding black raspberries, with notes of coffee, and dark chocolate.

Palate-- Fruit forward on a foundation that is well structured. There is a special twist mid-palate, and espresso, home baked berry pie, and somewhat lingering finish that makes you look forward to the next gulp! 

This $10 value from Trader Joe's is one of the better wines I have had in a long time. In fact I just got home from the store where I bought the 1 bottle and grabbed several more. Raise a glass!
