Zinfandel grape variety

The Zinfandel grape variety is mainly grown in California and produces powerful, extremely powerful and dense red wines, usually with a high alcohol content. The flavour is characterised by aromas of ripe, dark berries and fruits such as blackberry, cherry and plum as well as spicy notes of cinnamon, cloves, chocolate and pepper. Its mostly moderate acidity and soft, round tannins ensure high accessibility early on. A slightly sweet flavour is also not uncommon. The variety is largely identical to the southern Italian Primitivo, although the style of vinification varies considerably. However, both varieties are clearly descended from the rare Croatian variety Crljenak Kaštelanski or Tribidrag.
