2002 Edge Hill Zinfandel Butala Vineyard

From an old head-pruned vineyard, the dense purple-colored 2002 Zinfandel Butala Vineyard reveals a leathery, spicy, peppery bouquet with black cherry and licorice-dominated fruit. Rich and ripe, with a sweet mid-palate, it should merit an outstanding rating if everything comes together. It should be consumed over the next 4-5 years. Tel.
