Mountain Selection Amador County Zinfandel

Lovely Scott Harvey Zin. Holding up beautifully, as expected.

As always, Scott’s Zinfandel ages wonderfully.

First impression was petrol and star anise, but opened up to leather and tobacco. Not very fruit-forward, but re-read the winemaker's description and see this is by design. That's probably why I can only rate it an 8.3. I just prefer a bolder, fruitier expression of Zinfandel.

Some people don’t like Zin this age. We enjoy the port-like aspect this one developed. Great with broiled salmon.

Incredible and smooth. Jason & Tish love. Say it’s warm

2006 in 3L. Wine is perfectly aged and at its perfect drinking window!

Solid, but not a fair comparison to the previous night’s Zin.

Big bouquet of plums and dark cherries on first taste- Immediate burst of plums, blackberries and tannins up front. Then a dark cherry finish.

Bright and fruity , decently matured so that it loses that bold and smoky part of younger zins and takes on more of that bramble fruit and earthy quality
