Moderately saturated red-ruby. Sweet aromas of raspberry, mocha and milk chocolate. Fat, lush and sweet, with red fruit flavors offering moderate lift and nuance. Finishes with substantial dusty tannins.

Herbs, earth, and sassafras along with briery, berry fruit and loamy soil notes made me think of something between Zinfandel and Pinot Noir when I smelled and tasted the 2004 Zinfandel Tofanelli Vineyard. Dark ruby-tinged and seemingly on a faster evolutionary track than its siblings, it should be consumed over the next 3-5 years. (Release date 4/06) Tel. (707) 963-0940; Fax (707) 963-8683
