I finally picked this one up, and consumed it while I was writing something for my book's website.  This wine is nice and very approachable with a taste consumed with blackberries and a little cocoa.  I am missing the overly top cherry aspect, as well as raspberry, that normally make a good zin.  This does have a dash of cocoa as well  Not too powerful, but okay.

Our Mission: The Black Winer strives to expose African Americans [and others] to wines, without the flair, stuffiness, and airs of elitism and snobbery that you get from sommeliers and high level wine enthusiasts. We believe in finding something that you like the taste of, outside of the basic brands that you have been force-fed over the years through a combination of ethnically targeted advertising, and what people in your family have historically been drinking.
