Tasting - Z. Alexander Brown Uncaged Proprietary Red Blend 2021

Name:
Z. Alexander Brown Uncaged Proprietary Red Blend
Variety: Zinfandel and Petite Sirah

Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2021
Price: $17

Winery Review: Dark garnet in the glass, commanding aromas of blueberry, caramel and toasted oak preview a bold, mouth-filling palate stacked with concentrated layers of ripe dark fruit, black cherry and milk chocolate. Robust and full-bodied with excellent weight in the mid-palate, this complex wine leaves a lasting impression with a smooth, round and full finish.

My Review: First aroma off the bat is blueberry followed by more dark fruit. There’s a mixed berry note present with a scent of some oak. The taste is jammy with more berries. It is fruity but not overly so. Hints of blueberry and black cherry and plum dance on the palate. A hint of oak ties it together. This wine is well-balanced and very smooth with a long finish. I really enjoyed this wine and is a solid foray into the Z. Alexander Brown brand.
