There's a mish-mash of grapes in here alongside the 76% Zin, including Syrah, Barbera, Tempranillo, Malbec and Mourvèdre. It works though, fun and very fruit forward in character, with juicy ripe blueberry and red berry exuberance. It would be hard to find a wine that tastes more like cherry cola than this! It's easy drinking, dry but with sweet fruit, and would be a great pizza wine.
