Wine of the Week: Carlisle Sonoma Zinfandel 2005 (CA) $25

The 2005 Carlisle Sonoma Zinfandel is a rich, ultra dark berry extravaganza! From the welcome aromas of smoked wood to the well-weighted palate presence of plum, blackberry and a hint of peppercorn - this full-bodied Zinfandel is a red wine that is well worth the asking price! Perfect for brats, burgers and fancier fare, such as a spicy Moroccan-style barbecue.
