Alexander Valley Vineyards Zinfandel Redemption 2009
Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel at 14.9%
This has a dark edge for a wine titled “Redemption” with a dense core of blackberry fruit and an amped up black pepper spice to accompany lamb or smoked ribs. Full on the finish this is juicy, savory, spicy, and an absolute joy to drink as it goes down so easily.
