“This shows generous fruit character with dark cherries, plums and mulberries as well as hints of orange peel and spices. Full-bodied, broad and succulent on the palate, with a vivid, fruit-forward aftertaste. Drink now or hold.” – James Suckling, May 2024

“A shadowed brooder, deep and delicious. Devil’s food cake and a charge of soy sauce fill the mouth. A woodsy mid-palate further defines a broad mocha finish, topped with rich plum pudding.” – Somm Journal/Tasting Panel, May 2024

“This grows at a 10-acre vineyard, 10 miles from the coast, planted in 2008 with the St. Peters Church clone of zinfandel. It’s a complex wine, its structure and oak integrated enough that you could drink it tonight, even as the flavors keep developing with air, bringing cardamom and curry spice to the fleshy plum fruit, while mineral-inflected tannins keep it supple and dynamic.” – J.G., Wine & Spirits Magazine, June 2023

“At six years of age, this wine is maturing nicely, its tannins relaxed, its zesty, youthful floral notes beginning to surrender into quiet and comfortable fruit. That fruit is chocolaty and rich, with coolness in its length of flavor. Pour it with roast boar.” —J.G.

“Berry and raspberry with some chocolate and walnut character. It’s full and layered. Not overdone. Rich, yet balanced for this style of Zin. Lovely now.”
