Ripe raspberries and cherries in the nose, beautiful vibrant acid across the full palate. Red apple skins, pomegranate and vanilla on the palate. Yummy! Yay, it’s not a CA zin fruit bomb!

Wait! Could this be better than broc vine starr zin! I need a blind tasting stat! Raspberries, earth, cherry, a bit of pine forest, some dust, maybe pepper, plums for sure, but then roses and more flowers. Lingers for a minute on palate. Outstanding. I wish there were more of these zins available.

Earthy, dusty (in a good way, lol). Delicious with red sauce pasta and red meat.

Vines from 1918, pre-prohibition on protected land, what’s not to like?

Sold!

Rich plummy, soupy bouquet.

Rich, fruity forward, a bit of spice. More than your standard Zin, this present almost like a Primitivo.

Savory notes mix with peppercorn spice and smoke and berries all throughout.

Tasty, surprising, and novel.

Really light touch, spicy and fresh with good acidity. Totally avoids the cloying sweetness and excess weight of most CA Zinfandel.
