Storybook Mountain 2012 Antaeus Red Wine, $29.74-$34.99, 92 points, poured a ruby red with a clear wine ring and glass bowl of sticky sheeting.
The smells of wild mulberry, briar fruit, cedar, and an evergreen potpourri were excellent.
Medium-plus body with good acidity and fine, firm, grainy tannins carried bright flavors reflective of the aromas accented by red raspberry.
Finished long on a bit oak and a warm 14.9% alcohol inspirited spiciness.
Varietals were 53% Zinfandel, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot, and 3% Merlot.
Paired perfectly with my spicy Mexican cuisine.
