91 Wine Review Online

Made with fruit from vines at least a half-century old, this attention- grabbing Zinfandel delivers a burst of ripe black and red fruit flavors. This is a big, powerful wine, but good luck trying to find the amount of alcohol listed on the bottle (spoiler alert: hidden among the bricks towards the bottom of the design it’s listed at 15%). Happily, that alcohol is fairly well integrated, and the wine offers a long, glossy finish. Served with richly flavored and textured food it will be a fine accompaniment to a meal. I recently enjoyed it with a big, juicy steak, but it’s also good with foods such chili, spaghetti and meatballs, and sausages. -Marguerite Thomas
