With an ABV of 15.9, it’s just too ripe with too much heat. Don’t know why Martinelli continues to push ripeness to such extreme levels. I no longer buy their zins because of this and now the Syrahs seem to be going in the same direction as well as their Pinots. Maybe it’s my palate that’s changing, but I no longer like the over the top wines.

Best with food. Roasted pork with Emeril's seasoning.
