Napa Estate Reserve Zinfandel 2008

Selected from the best barrels of the vintage, this wine takes complexity and depth to another dimension. Layers of flavors and aromas, enhanced by focus and length, destine our Estate Reserves to age gracefully over many years.

 

"This is the most elegant of the winery's new Zinfandels, although elegant has to be taken in context when it comes to mountain fruit with this intensity and power. It's a big wine, with potent raspberry, cherry and blackberry fruit. Yet there's a delicacy to it, even considering the tannins, that's almost like a Pinot Noir, strange as that sounds. Earns its high score by virtue of this magic. Should age effortlessly throughout the decade."   94 points Wine Enthusiast Magazine   Dec. 2011
