Winemaker's Notes

The hue of the medium dark purple McManis Family Vineyards Zinfandel, displays all the attractive qualities of a young wine. Pleasant ripe redcurrants and fresh strawberry immediately come to mind followed by caramelised sugar and toast. The savouriness of bright red fruits are enveloped in the succulent, juicy wine which possesses soft, supple tannins.
