Critics Ratings

'Lovely aged elements on the nose and through the palate bring delicious depth with still vibrant acidity. Delicious, mouth-watering, succulent palate. Notes of spiced stone fruits with pepper accents and a bit of wet tobacco. Incredibly persistent, and quite palate stimulating. Lovely fine-grained tannins and a very long finish.' - Elaine Chukan Brown, jancisrobinson.com, 17.5+/20 (Oct 2018)

'Pushes ripeness to the max and touches on raisin, dried plum and wild berry, with hints of sage and mint. On the finish, the rich flavors push through. Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Carignane and Mataro.--Blind California Zinfandel retrospective. Drink now.' - James Laube, Wine Spectator
