Pinetti - Zinfandel (2015)

Extremely strong tannins, completely overwhelms all other flavors.  I did use an aerator, let it sit some time, and serve at room temperature.  I also tried chilling it a bit to see if it shifted the flavor profile, which as expected, did not work.  (usually the colder the wine the more intense the tannins are in my experience).

There is some deep earthy flavors that are interesting, so I won't give it a 0/4.

1/4

Hey, at least it was on sale for $5.  I did have a zin from cali and I think it was similar, but with more flavor.  This may not be my style, so if you like this style, maybe you can take my review with a grain of salt.
