Sledgehammer may be a great name for a potent Zin, but it won't really hit you like one. It's much more gentle than that... but it'll probably seduce you into submission first.
It has an abundance of raspberry and sweet baking spices, chocolate and espresso aromas lead to a secondary layer of fruit - blueberry and black cherry with vanilla. The palate reflects the nose - it supplies generous fruit, has a supple texture and fine cocoa tannins lingering on the finish.
Typical seductive Zinfandel characters...
You can never go wrong with a bottle of Zin at a barbecue. The potent sweet, ripe fruit and inherent spiciness is perfect with burgers, spicy sausage, chilidogs or sweet and tangy ribs.
