RATINGS

93Wine Enthusiast

Ripe and juicy in red and black berries, this wine has a big presence and plenty of bold flavor, retaining all the elements so beloved in the variety, from black pepper to leather and cigar... Mouthfilling, it has zinging acidity on the finish, making for a memorable wine.

92Wine Spectator

Supple, precise and elegantly complex, showing aromatic accents of red and black fruit and rich, zesty flavors of raspberry, cracked pepper and spice cake.

90-92Vinous / IWC

Savory and mineral notes abound... Iron, smoke, red cherries, plums and leather are some of the notes that flow through to the tense, vibrant finish...bit less obvious and rich through the mid-palate and finish...

17.5Jancis Robinson

...fresh and lively. So precise with something in common with a really successful Châteauneuf.

TYPE

Red Wine, Zinfandel

Zinfandel is a black-skinned grape, but 85% of the wine produced is made into a rosy “White Zinfandel.” Red Zin is far more complex and bold, while still being light-bodied. It grows in popularity as winemakers continue to experiment with new styles and blends.
