Chateau Montelena
Calistoga Zinfandel
Calistoga, Napa Valley, California, USA
Pretty classic, old school style Zin. Ripe, balanced spicy blackberry fruit, sandstoney gravelly notes. Soft and full in the mouth. Not jammy at all. Less structured than typical Ridge or Storybook benchmarks, but so drinkable. Love the balance on this. Only 14.5%, thank God.
