HOBO Dry Creek Valley 2012 Zinfandel





HOBO Dry Creek Valley 2012 Zinfandel,
$20.33-$22.59, 91 points, poured dark cranberry red with flashes of maroon trending bright orange/red at the glass bowl and broad clear wine ring.
Profuse aromas of juniper, blackberry, sage, and toasty red cherry were very good.
Medium-bodied carried good acidity, firm, but waning tannin, and flavors of strawberry, marionberry, mint, with a touch of oak.
Finished long on a well integrated sweet-spot 14.3% alcohol, the trailing palate, spearmint, a hint of tart pomegranate, and easy white pepper.
I bought this Zinfandel at the Harvest Market in Bedford.
