"A focused, well-balanced and driven zinfandel from Coombsville. It has aromas of red berries, red plums, sweet spices and a touch of hazelnuts. Medium-bodied with fine tannins. A vivid core of spices complements the fruity and textural mid-palate and the berry-like finish. Drink or hold."

"Flavors of pomegranate, black plum, orange zest and rootbeer mean this Zinfandel is simultaneously friendly and impressively serious. The tannins are lightly grippy with the potential to age, while the palate is mouthwatering and lengthy. Complexity and detail makes this wine stand out. Cellar Selection. —E.C.B."

"This polished red retains a classic sense of Zinfandel briar, with multilayered flavors of black cherry, roasted anise and pepper that race toward vibrant tannins. Drink now through 2032. —T.F."
