Old Vine Zinfandel 2020

I’ve waxed (eloquent? Well, at least waxed!! 🤔) about the virtues and quality of this excellent 2020 Zinfandel multiple times, but this wine is still punching well above its weight (the so-called “leftovers” that didn’t make the single vineyard cut), long finish, lovely!! Going to the Bedrock pickup party in Sonoma tomorrow to get some of the 2024s I’ve already purchased, so this is a great warmup!! — 20 days ago

7 Deadly Zins Old Vine Lodi Zinfandel 2019

Unlike my memory of zinfandels on the beach in California, but quite compelling. Almost bitter, yet dark and soothing. Chocolate is like that. — 2 years ago

Cakebread Cellars

Vine Hill Ranch Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

Auction wine. Broken cork. Again. Wine was at base of the neck. I think cakebread got a batch of bad corks. No wine into the cork and they all broke right at the end. Not sure how it affected the wine but it’s been a consistent issue

Wine exhibited some decent fruit but no real depth or grip. Very smooth and medium body but missing some power and complexity expected from this site.

Wow!! Simply awesome. 1hr+ decant. Dark purple color. Nose of tar and baking spices. Velvet on the palate and chewy. Nice fruit with earth and refinement throughout. Medium plus depth. Medium minus finish is the only fault. Wish I bought more @ $45!! 96.5 but rounding up. Glad I have two more bottles!! — 4 years ago
