2009 Predator: Review


Old Vine Zinfandel

Predator Wines
St. Helena, California, USA
Lodi Appellation

15% abv

Appearance: deep crimson body with a bright crimson edge

Aroma: wow, different, barbeque, smoked wood, earthy

Flavors: very different, hickory wood, smoked pork, saucy,

Mouthfeel: relatively smooth, it does have a lingering smoky wood and bbq maple sauce note.

My Strength Rating: 6

To the Point: not for everyone, if you didn’t know about this wine ahead of time you might hate it, by knowing about it ahead of time will help you to understand it when you drink it.

Me personally, I don’t care for smoked beers and well I am not a fan of bbq smoked wines.  This wine was easy to give up on.  It is interesting but, is it worth trying?  If you can buy it by the glass and you want something different – sure.
