Burbank Ranch
2012 Fall Colors Zinfandel
Zinfandel
California: Paso Robles
Mission Briefing
Vino Excellente
For all our Operatives who love that taste of Italy, I’ve found a marvelous wine in today’s Burbank Ranch 2012 Fall Colors Zinfandel. This rich, dark, full-bodied, Zin will make you think of driving through the Old Country on a Saturday afternoon and stopping by a friendly local winery for lunch.
Let your dinner guests guess at what region of Italy this marvelous wine comes from… before you tell them it came from Paso Robles!
This delightful Zin is full and very fragrant on the nose, with strawberry, raspberry, black cherry and blackberry, infused with dusty bramble, sweet tobacco leaf, dried fall leaves, dried earth, cocoa dust, cherry cola candy, sweet spice and black pepper.
On the palate, velvety smooth, with layered flavors of wild berry compote, blueberry jam, black cherry juice, wild strawberry, baker’s chocolate, braised plum, braised mission fig, subtle spice and a hint of black pepper.
This wine is highly recommended, and I urge you to visit us soon to read my full review. We’ve secured plenty of this delicious wine, so you needn’t worry about it selling out, but this extraordinary 50% off deal expires at midnight, never to return!
