Wine Tasting Notes
The Terra d'Oro Amador County Zinfandel displays the classic characteristics unique to this region. Enticing aromas of clove, cracked pepper, black cherry, smoke, violets, licorice, black olive and sage lead to an elegant entry of cherry and licorice on the palate. This opulent wine has a round, generous mouthfeel with a blackberry driven midpalate and velvety tannins leading to a long finish of baking spice. Bold and intriguing, the 2016 Terra d'Oro Amador County Zinfandel is truly a taste of its region. Pair this wine with eggplant parmesan or grilled lamb skewers with a blackberry reduction.
