| The Mandolin Old Vines Zinfandel has a core of plum red fading to a light strawberry rim. This wine displays aromas of canned strawberry jam, plums, cherries, spice and alcohol. It has lower acidity and high alcohol showing plum, black pepper, sour cherry and cedar on the palate. This wine will not age and would be fine with burgers, pasta or pizza. | ||||||||||||||||
