From the winery:
Aromas of blackberry, raspberry, bramble, cocoa leaf, and wet stones. Flavors of strawberry, black pepper, blueberry pie crust, and wet stones. The mouthfeel is opulent, structured, and has chewy tannins, a long finish with fresh and laser-focused acidity.
Jeb Dunnuck, 95 points:
The 2018 Zinfandel Russian River Estate shows the quality of the vintage beautifully. Classic black and blue fruits, violets, peppery herbs, and spiced orange zest notes all emerge from the glass, and this puppy hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, no hard edges, a seamless texture, and just everything in the right places. Flawlessly balanced and already a joy to drink, it's going to keep for 10-12 years in cold cellars.
