Their review: "Our White Zinfandel combines crisp refreshment with bring fruit flavors of fresh strawberry and hints of sweet, white peach."
My review: Very pink, approaching red, and almost no legs to speak of which tells me this will likely be a very thin, light wine. Almost sickeningly sweet on the nose - this has been a trend with the lighter wines I've tried tonight. Peaches everywhere. Tons and tons of peaches. Possibly perfumey peaches. Again a carbonated feel to it. The peaches dominate the taste, but it's not nearly as sweet as the smell would lead you to believe. Actually I prefer the taste greatly to the smell. I'm not excited about this wine, but given its sweetness I was expecting far worse.
