'13 Chester's Anvil Zin Mead Ranch (BD)

Uhm…this is fantastic!

Nose of raspberry, cranberry, stewed red fruit and licorice, slight spice/cinnamon. Taste confirmed red fruit, pepper, leather, sharp, acidic. Fantastic and approachable high ABV dark purple zin. A great showcase of what cali zin is. High alcohol hangs on a little long in the finish, but stylistically can make for some fantastic BBQ or a heavy sauce paring.

Anyone else have any thoughts?

Why yes, yes I do… I should have grabbed a case of the zin in addition to the HH on BD X

Had a quick glass this afternoon and want to revisit tomorrow. Initially reactions were (i) WOW; and (ii) I love Berserker Day! Will follow up…

Had another btl tonight. So great. I love berserkerday!
