2021 CruZin Zinfandel
The wine name: CruZin
In France Cru (kroo) means a vineyard of great distinction or a very distinctive growth. We feel that our Zinfandel is indeed distinctive, yummy and something that you might take for a cruise. The result is CruZin!
Visual
Scarlet red with purple hues.
Aroma
Dark fruit like blackberry and currants with black pepper and spice.
Taste
Dry with jammy fruit forward notes. Well-balanced in terms of acidity and sweetness.
Barrel: New French Oak, 50%
CruZin was aged in wooden barrels and monitored closely to impart a 50% new French oak taste. This foundation gives the wine a luscious blend of spice, vanilla and slight char.
Pairings:
It pairs excellently with BBQ meats like steaks and burgers, dry cheeses, pasta and hardy breads.
