Typically not a Zin guy, but this wine was so honest. Sitting above Mayacamas on Mt Veeder it was not over oaked or extracted, but kept a dense dark character. Killer expression of Zinfandel.

Gorgeous, medium-bodied Zinfandel from some of the most remote vineyards in all of Napa, gown organically on Mt. Veeder’s volcanic soils, at 2,100 ft. altitude, and made by California cult producer Lore Olds - Bob Travers’ assistant winemaker at Mayacamas back in the 1970s. Earthy, mineral and balanced. Blackberry, peppery smokiness, hints of nail polish or marker

Dayum, Gina. Spice, old forest incense, slight effervescence, pleasantly "round" red fruit. So dynamic. No awful ham.

Very complex Zin. Soft tannins, lots of fruit. Dry farmed hippie wine! Great stuff

All pepper and tannins, then thin aluminum foil. Both with food and without. Overpriced.
