A fascinating Pinot with considerable depth and pronounced stomas asks flavors of black cherry, strawberry, raspberry, red currant, vanilla and toast. The oak is very well managed and with its high acidity and low tannin, the wine is very fresh. Delightful with food. — a year ago

This is the first wine I have tried from Southern Oregon the Rogue Valley. A gift sent to me from my brother who lives in Medford, OR. This is the 2017 Dancin Vineyard Allegro Zinfandel. You would not know that this was a typical Zinfandel if you were tasting this blind. It is not jammy and the fruit is not in your face. If I didn't know better I would have thought this to be more in line with a Pinot Noir.

On the nose there is black cherry, blackberry, black plum, clove, raisin and dark soils.

On the palate there is black cherry, boysenberry, black plum, clove, star anise, spice and a minerality.

This wine is medium bodied not jammy more Pinot like with a light fruity mouthfeel, medium + acidity and medium fine tannins that lead into a long fruit filled, snappy acid finish. A very pleasant wine that would go well just with about any type of food. Thanks to my brother for sending this wine. Have a great week ahead and please be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 5 years ago

Could have used a bit more time in the bottle. Still has some nice body to it.

I was in the mood for Sauvignon Blanc that had more to say for itself than “hi, I’m Sauvignon Blanc” to which I’d theoretically reply “do I LOOK like a Basic B? Huh? Whatcha gonna say about THAT Savvy B?” Kidding, I’d never do that but if I were the type to be so insulting this wine would not bear the brunt of my wrath because it is more than SB spiritually and literally (there’s 8% Sauvignon Gris in the mix). It is understated. Sort of hinting first at greens, then grapefruit and lemons. On the palate it is quite elegant, bringing in honeysuckle and zip. It does a graceful dance over your tongue, a petite allegro but slightly slowed down, not too fast too follow if you happen to be it’s dance partner.
If you like your SB to slap you around and make you say it’s name this may not be your jam, but if you want a little intrigue, this one’s for you. — 4 years ago
