title: Daou 2012 Reserve Zinfandel (Paso Robles)
description: Rich cherry and spicy black pepper introduce the nose to this wine from the Adelaida district. The flavors explore the more nuanced, not overly jammy side of the grape, with tart acidity and a good tannic backbone ensuring a long life. Decent now, but better to drink 2018–2022.
variety: Zinfandel
designation: Reserve
