Third wine at The Vineyard. This is one I would be interested in buying to try again in the future. Lighter than expected in color, light ruby red. A ton, and I mean a ton of floral notes. Palate was slow to attack, then very thick at the end and a little meaty. Moderate plus tannins 6.5/10 and full bodied. Needs a little bit of time to fully come together but delicious and so interesting. Long lingering finish. If served blind, would never have guessed that this was a Zinfandel.

This Zin from Paso was very special. An elevated and unexpected experience with a Zin. So often overly jammy or rich, this one was sophisticated and more complex. Small producer who clearly knows his stuff. Well done!
