Opens with a juicy burst of cherry fruit, then turns brooding midway, with dark berry flavors accented by savory white pepper and bay leaf. Ends with broad-shouldered tannins. Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Carignan and Alicante Bouschet. Drink now through 2031. —TF
This focused, firm, and tannic wine exudes black pepper and wood-smoke aromas, followed by a rather tight espresso, blueberry, and cacao flavors. Made from 74% Zinfandel and other California heritage-grape varieties, it has the bones of a cool-climate wine and should improve through at least 2028.
What We Thought: This has a clear garnet color, a big black cherry nose, and a ripe, medium-bodied palate filled with smooth, black cherry and blackberry fruit, along with notes of cloves and allspice.
