2004 La Storia Zinfandel, Alexander Valley Estate
$28.00
TASTING NOTES
The 2004 La Storia Zinfandel is a dark ruby/purple-tinged,
classic Zin with copious quantities of black cherries,
raspberries, and currants intermixed with hints of spicy
wood, heady alcohol (15%), enough acidity to provide
definition and uplift, and a full-bodied, concentrated palate
with no hard edged. Drink it over the next 3-5 years.
