Tasting notes: BIG TOP Zinfandel USA
Big Top Zinfandel USA has a cracked black pepper and dark damson fruit. On the palate this wine is round and fleshy, beautifully balanced and packed full with robust red fruit flavours and a lick of oak. A Vinomondo bestseller.
Food Pairing: Big Top Zinfandel
Great with a generous home made burger or a spicy sausage casserole. Serve chilled and drink with friends
Producer:
The current range of wines are sourced from the warm region of Lodi in Central California, to which Samantha Bailey brings her esteemed palate and decades experience to hone these elements into the brightest wines of The Sunshine State.
Zinfandel is lighter in colour than both Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. However, although a light-bodied red wine like Pinot Noir, Zin’s moderate tannin and high acidity make it taste bold. Generally speaking, most Zinfandel wines have higher alcohol levels ranging from about 14 – 17% ABV. Higher alcohol adds an oily texture and bigger, bolder body.
