RATINGS

94Wine Spectator

Combines personality with polish, offering floral cherry and tomato leaf aromas and layered, plump cracked pepper, Asian spice and smoky plum flavors...

93Vinous / IWC

...wonderfully fragrant and lifted. Medium in body, gracious and super-expressive, the Evangelho is pure class. All the elements simply come together in this super-expressive Zinfandel-based wine...a wine of compelling beauty and pedigree...

92The Wine Advocate

...scented of baked red and black berries, tar, earth, chargrill and pepper. The palate is medium to full-bodied with firm, chewy tannins and a refreshing frame with loads of fruit, finishing long.

17+ Jancis Robinson

Steeped in sweet oak spices. Opulent black fruit on the palate, a lovely lick of hickory smoke, and something flinty and sparky too. Genuine complexity here, giving lovely depth to that raisined fruit.

REGION

United States, California, Central Coast, Contra Costa County

Contra Costa County is a sub appellation within the Central Coast AVA. Contra Costa is the region just to the east of San Francisco, Berkeley and Oakland. Though the area includes many square miles of suburban build-up, there are also vineyards. It is the northern edge of the Central Coast AVA, a huge wine producing area that extends from Santa Barbara County in the south to San Francisco in the north. With more than 100,000 vineyard acres, it includes parts of six counties near the Pacific Ocean. Nearly 20 smaller AVAs lie within the Central Coast AVA. Central Coast earned appellation status in 1985. Included in the appellation are parts of the counties of Contra Costa, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara and Santa Cruz. Nearly every grape varietal grown in California is grown somewhere in the Central Coast AVA, though Chardonnay accounts for nearly 50% of the entire wine grape crop.
