Cline - Zinfandel 2004 Sonoma, Ca

Vineyard: Cline Cellars Sonoma, CA
Name: Cline Zinfandel
Year: 2004

Notes: Erin tried this wine in January 2006. It is full-bodied like most zins but not so much flair. I would buy it again but a wine like Smoking Loon Cabernet may be a better quality choice.

Rating: B-
