Opened some time prior to service; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The 2022 Zinfandel pours a ruby color with a nearly transparent core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is youthful with notes of Bing cherry, black plum, red and purple flowers, tobacco and gentle warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. To my palate, this needs some years on its side to gain some complexity but the components are there. Drink now to experience its fruit dominated youth; best from 2027-2042.

Terrific value can be found in Napa...it's just not Cab. Boysenberries, sloe, licorice. Smooth tannins & well-balanced high 14.7% alcohol.

I usually love this wine and I just had it last week but this one fell a bit short. I'm thinking it was bottle variation or maybe because it was just brought over from Cali.
