Glen Carlou Zinfandel 2002
95% Zinfandel, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon – As always, making great Zinfandel is a tough job. 2002 was no different, with the high sugars and ripe tannins causing a long, slow fermentation in barrels. Matured for 14 months in 50/50 French and American oak barrels, blended with a dash of Cabernet Sauvignon. Tasting note: A more elegant and smooth Zinfandel than the 2001, this wine has ripe fresh mulberry and black berry flavours on the nose. Very youthful palate with fresh red berry flavours continuing long on the palate, backed by big, ripe tannins.
