Name: 1000 Stories
Varietal: Zinfandel
Region: Mendocino County, California
Country: U.S
Year: 2020
Price: $16
Winery Review: Charred vanilla, dried herbs, and a hint of caramel. Flavors of red and black fruit, vanilla, and sage. Aged in French and American oak and finished in bourbon barrels, which provides a flavor of clove, vanilla, and earthiness
Wine Folly: pg. 189 mentions that Zinfandel is a bold red that is known for its jammy fruit and smoky, spice, and exotic flavors. It pairs well with Turkish, Moroccan, and Arabic cuisine. Flavors of blackberry, strawberry, cinnamon, and sweet tobacco.
My Review: It has a tannic scent of aroma along with a hint of either bourbon or whiskey. The taste of the wine relies on some cherry fruitiness that makes the mouth dry after tasting it. in addition, the taste of the wine has dashes of whiskey aftertaste that doesn't overwhelm the fruitiness of the wine but makes itself prevalent after tasting.
