The 2021 Román is an absolute delight. Crushed flowers, sweet red cherry fruit, cinnamon, leather and dried herbs are nicely lifted in this translucent, weightless Zinfandel-based red. Dollops of Petite Sirah and Barbera round out the blend. This is grace personified. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, July 2024)

Dusty red fruits (plum, rhubarb) on the nose, medium-dark red, medium+ body, nice acidity out of the gate, mellowing into a nice balance of a little sweetness and a little sourness, more plum, some raspberry, bit of bramble on the finish.

Shockingly good for the price ($34 at a nice restaurant — an American wine!). Good acidity really makes it. Still good two days later! 91.
