I have yet to really find a Zinfandel from Cline Cellars that I really like, and even when stepping up on the price, I still am not really satisfied.  This time around, I chose this bottle hoping for something different, but alas that did not happen.

While rich in color and strong in power, this wine's flavors gravitate wholly around dark plums when I really was looking for bursting dark cherries.  On the backend, it warms your throat during the finish, but it's not what I am looking for.  If you want a zin that is powerful but more demure and delicate in it's taste, then this is for you.  If you require something more full-bodied and all up in your mouth, try something different.
