2010 Orin Swift the Prisoner Zinfandel Blend

The 2010 has great color with a deep garnet hue. The aromas, which are intense and complex, include dark blackberry, cherry, black currant and cassis with undertones of vanilla from new oak.  On the palate, the wine makes an impressive entry with rich, bold flavors of lush berry, ripe cherry, black plum and coffee. The wine has a solid core of fruit, balanced by bright acidity. The finish is long, lingering and filled with soft, velvety tannins that leave a lasting impression.
