Crow Ridge Vineyard Ancient Vine Zinfandel

A little too fruity, but good

Got some funk to it.

Superb wine from an outstanding vineyard, as usual with this winery.

If I had a complaint, it would be that it was a little bit hot. Otherwise, fantastic.

Dark/black fruit, spuce, black pepper and cocoa. M tannin, intensity and body. On the palate, black fruit, espresso and chocolate.

Not a zin drinker but this wine was fantastic. Good body and flavor.

Take me to Monte Rio...

Benefited from time in bottle and quick decant. Strong nose of blackberries and faint spice. Dripping with black fruit flavors with a hint of peppers and earthiness. Well balanced.

Was expecting to be wowed by those 100+ year old vines... first impression was "one dimension and anise, or fennel, at that"

Great
