This newest release from the Ricci Vineyard shows why this Zinfandel has been one of our flagship wines for almost 30 years. It’s a Zin that explodes from the glass, followed by cherry-vanilla on the palate, with blackberry cobbler vibes, a touch of cdar/oaky richness, and almost plummy depth. Extended barrel aging brings softness and weaves all those flavors together into one cohesive, balanced package. The finish lingers for a solid 35 seconds—long enough that you’ll want to pause and savor every bit of it. Exceptional!
