this is richer than usual but with a pronounced bite of acidic tension and a salty tang on the finish

The palate is generous and sumptuous with black fruit and licorice flavors

They express nuance over opulence and age beautifully for years

Tortoise Creek Zinfandel The Chelonian 2018 skus_30186330 this is richer than usualThe Chelonian has a lovely spicy, cherry like bouquet, bursting with ripe berry flavors. There are delicious notes of blackcurrant and plum with a lingering finish of vanilla and cinnamon toast. Perfect with spicy food, game, or beef. Earthy and black peppery aromas lead to mostly oaky flavors of cedar, maple, brown sugar and plums in this full bodied, and moderately tannic wine.
