Antaeus Estate Napa Valley Zinfandel Blend
2012 vintage. Super classy old school Napa. 53 Zinfandel 34 Cab Sauv 10 Petit Verdot 3 Merlot. Dark and dusty in both texture and flavor. Blackberry, currant, baked raspberry, sage, graphite, dried leaves, cedar, dried violets. Good complexity and still seems rather youthful, considering its age.

Apr 16th, 2016Balanced blend of Cabernet, merlot, and Zinfandel. Drinking well now, but has good tannic structure on the finish to cellar for a few more years.
