Zanna 2000

In 2000 the growing season began early and the high temperatures and prolonged drought during the summer caused some minor problems due to the lack of water. Nevertheless, the grapes were healthy and very rich. An exceptional vintage.
The incredibly dark and youthful ruby color made the wine seem 6-8 years old. When opened the aroma was distinct and showed no sign of reduction. The aroma was also very youthful with scents of red fruit jam and a hint of corky wood that was not very fine, fresh earth and tomato sauce. The mouthfeel had a touch of freshness, dry tannins at the center of the mouth and the finish was bold and dry with a licorice aftertaste. A very young wine, bold but not tense, which will benefit from further bottle aging.

The wine is no longer available retail.
