2017 Saitone Estate Vineyard Zinfandel

The nose captures one’s attention immediately with a complex array of fruity and savory qualities. A fruit basket of aromas spring from the glass with red, blue, and black fruits and a top note of stone fruit. Layered with hints of anise and cracked pepper, the depth seems to go forever in the glass. In the mouth, the wine has incredible concentration of flavor without ever losing focus due to the zesty acidity. The Santa Rosa Plain area, where Saitone is planted, is a Zinfandel lover’s heaven; it produces wines with complexity and focus. Citrus and minerality on the finish completes the palate of this gorgeous offering of old-vine Zinfandel.
