Leese-Fitch Zinfandel

With deep garnet color, the 2012 Leese Fitch Zinfandel has aromas of raspberries, fresh grated ginger, cinnamon stick, black cherry, and vanilla cream pie. The flavors marry seamlessly with the aroma showing notes of black cherry, fresh cranberry, raspberry hard candy, crème soda, nutmeg, and finishes with American oak flavors of vanilla and coconut. The wine goes very well with lamb sliders topped with arugula or deep-dish lasagna with sausage and sweet roasted red peppers. A vegetarian option would be vegetable biryani with a mild heat level.
