Unfiltered Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel 2019

Popped and poured; enjoyed over a 24-hour period with very little evolution. No formal notes. Enjoyed alongside the 2015. Tonight, the 2019 showed brighter and almost exercised some restraint. Definitely still showing signs of its youth and a more proportional mix of red and black bramble fruit when compared to the 2015 which was more black in profile. Balanced and endowed with great structure; acid showing particularly well. Better after 2025 but I wouldn’t at all be surprised to see myself enjoying this late into the 2030’s. — 4 days ago

Abstract Grenache Blend 2022

Blend of Grenache, Syrah & Petite Sirah, very dark Ruby with purple center, aromas of fresh ripe black and blue fruits with floral and spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry, plum and blackberry with cacao, espresso, pepper and vanilla notes with savory chewy tannins, well balanced, long finish ending with fruit and toasty vanilla oak. Nice! Consistent Quality! A Fav! — 3 days ago

Broc Cellars

Vine Starr Sonoma County Zinfandel 2022

Had in Thanksgiving after dinner. Still the best wine broc makes. Wish he didn’t do so many other random wines that have no soul. This is amazing fruit, tastes like zin but so well balanced. It was like an aperitif to bridge dinner and dessert. — 14 days ago
