| Winemaker Tasting Notes: |
Aromas include smoky spice, bay, berry, earth, mint and mineral. Dark fruit flavors of blackberries, blueberries and black currant, in an elegant wrapping of spicy and well-integrated oak. In contrast to the more simple, dark fruit jam flavors of the 2005 Block 28 Zinfandel, the 2006 returns to the familiar broad-shouldered, firm structured, complex and almost Cab-like Hendry Zinfandel style. This wine will continue to soften and gain complexity with age. The natural concentration and firm structure of Block 28 fruit is the reason it receives 15% more new oak barrels than the Block 7 & 22 bottling. Block 28 has an affinity for anything rich, braised, or meaty, and would be terrific with a slow-roasted lamb shank rubbed with herbes-de-provence, braised short ribs or a game-based risotto.
