Description
The 2020 Ancient Vines Zinfandel shows bright strawberry, raspberry, five spice and cedar aromas. Ripe strawberry, raspberry, plum, and lilac flavors with a balanced and juicy acidity create this rich vintage. Aging on 40% new French oak and used oak for 15 months has lent this wine a subtle vanilla and cedar quality that nicely complements the explosive fruit notes. Enjoy now or cellar for 5 to 7 years.
