2005 Ridge York Creek Vineyard Zinfandel

[Drew]

89% Zinfandel,11% Petite Sirah.
Eileen and I spent Christmas dinner alone after Christmas Eve family time at my sisters home in Howard County, Md.
A very nice, fruity, feminine zin with an attractive herbal/menthol/basil nose. Brambly fruit, blackberry and dark cherry palate with hints of licorice and sweet oak. Paired nicely with brined, "Chef Carey" high heat methode roasted turkey only with breast/cavity intact. Cavity was stuffed with onion, garlic and quartered clementines with all of the traditional sides...... wonderful!
