This is a solid effort. The 1997 Zinfandel Fiddletown is explosively rich, ripe, and alcoholic. It possesses gobs of sweet, jammy, kirsch-like fruit as well as pepper and spice notes. The wine is medium to full-bodied, with good glycerin, purity, and an attractively long finish. It needs to be consumed over the next 2-3 years. Tel. (209) 245-6554
