Martinelli’s Zindfandel is a rich, high-octane wine of considerable intensity, fragrance, and richness. The 2004 Zinfandel Jackass Hill (125 cases) boasts amazing elegance, revealing fine balance along with notes of plum liqueur, roasted meats, spice box, and sweet Provencal herbs interwoven with sassafras, licorice and espresso. A dense ruby/purple color, soaring aromatics, flamboyant flavors, and a monster palate with no hard edges always make this one of the world’s most distinctive Zinfandels. Its 17+% alcohol is reasonably well-concealed by layers of concentration. This blockbuster should drink well for 10-15 years.
