Blasi Chalk Hill Zinfandel Petite Sirah 2020
More fruit and fuller than the Boatman; liked the fruit and fullness — 3 years ago
Ridge Vineyards
Boatman Jake's Block Zinfandel 2015
Spicy, plummy red fruit. Sharp, angular. Slate, concrete, pronounced pepper. Both vegetable pepper and spicy pepper. Forest floor with new oak dominance in the finish. Surprisingly lacking in aromatics. — 6 years ago
Is that 100% Zin? I thought I heard at least 5% petit Verdot t be honest
Ridge Vineyards
Boatman Alexander Valley Zinfandel 2016
Definitely one of the Zinfandel standouts from the 2018 Spring release (along with the Carmichael IMO). That being said, I think this would benefit from a few years in the cellar to work off some of the baby fat. Plush, dark fruits and baking spices. Moderate acid. This would be fun to follow over the next ten years. — 5 years ago
Boatman Wines
The Boatman Red Blend 2014
Very easy to drink. Low acid, dark fruits. — 9 years ago
A good wine for summer nights, I could probably drink the whole bottle.
Joe DAscoli
Wine #2 of Ridge night and more with dessert. More bramble and density than the Boatman. Less fruit and the fruit was darker and more black than blue. Also enjoyable — a year ago
