McHenry Hohnen Vintners Hazel's Vineyard Zinfandel is an extraordinary wine hailing from Western Australia's Margaret River region. It boasts a complex riot of bold, juicy fruit flavours including a dominant blackberry with hints of raspberry. Underlying this are notes of spice, earthiness and subtle wild herb nuances that provide depth. Its striking palate is balanced with robust tannins, culminating in a magnificently long finish that is both slightly acidic and attractively sweet. This Zinfandel represents the perfect harmony of power and elegance, making it a splendid accompaniment to rich, hearty meat dishes. A true testament to the vintner's craftsmanship.
