Quivira Zinfandel Black Boar 2015

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2014 Zinfandel Black Boar has baked cherries and dark chocolate notes for openers, followed by dried fruit cake, Indian spices, fertile soil and dried herb hints. Full-bodied, concentrated and with lovely vibrancy, it has chewy tannins and a refreshing backbone, finishing with lingering earth notes.

A beguiling spiciness complements the upfront dark fruitplum, blackberry, and bing cherry followed by hints of chocolate in the long finish. The generous entry is framed by juicy acidity and suave tannins. Black Boar’s sense of place, aromatic purity and signature Dry Creek flavors ensure the wine has a long life ahead of it.
