2006 Hagafen Napa Valley Zinfandel
90 Points! Multiple Gold Medals! Hagafens third Zinfandel release, the 2006 Napa Valley Zin gives a rich combination of blackberry, boysenberry, and sweet oak on the nose. On the palate is a superb blend of cherry and black cherry, accented by anise, clove, and roasted cocoa. Firm, silky tannins work in concert with the long finish, giving a lower alcohol Zinfandel designed to be food friendly, especially served with barbequed or roasted meats or tomato-based sauces. This is a wine you will want in your cellar for easy drinking now or for years to come.
