2021 1000 Stories Zinfandel Bourbon Barrel Aged Batch 88, USA, California, Lodi, Wine Review

This is made from various sites around California.  It is my favorite of the 1000 Stories BBA wines.  Garnet in color, mostly opaque and bright.  The nose has smoke, black cherries, and slight bramble.  Medium to full bodied.  Light to medium tannins.  Good acidity.  On the palate, black cherries, some root beer notes and plenty of char.  Good finish with black cherries and slight, slight black licorice.  This is nice on its own and would work well with grilled foods such as a Pork Chop.  Drink over the next year or two.
