From Paso Robles limestone soils, the 2004 Zinfandel Pesenti Vineyard could pass for a Grenache-based southern Rhone with its striking minerality, pepper and kirsch liqueur-like notes. Full-bodied, but remarkably fresh (thanks to the limestone), it possesses 16+% alcohol, but that component is well-concealed by the wines fruit and structure. It should drink well for a decade.

Good full red. Superripe aromas of brambly red fruits and pepper. Dense, sappy and sweet, with an exhilarating sugar/acid balance. The raspberry liqueur flavor retains terrific freshness. Finishes dense and sweet, with a distinctly juicy quality.
