Made exclusively from the oldest Zin parcels in the vineyard. All the fruit in this wine is from vines dating back over 130 years. Cherry 🍒 cola, supple and silky.

One of the most complex Zins I've had. Classic red, blue, black fruit. Mocha, roasted chestnut, brûlée and impressive length & complexity.

World class Zin. Round and polished, with a lasting finish. Classic Zin flavors on a polished palate. Mouthwatering.

Truest outstanding Zinfandel. Pricey but excellent! Drank with an average Zin to be able to appreciate the difference.

Waited too long to review so sadly do not recall nuances but enjoyed it very much.

Some of the oldest vines in Napa. 80 - 100 year old vines producing a raspberry and plum fruitiness and then a ever so light vanilla spice finish.

I was hoping for a home run from Canard to keep them in the lineup. Very good, not great
