Reminiscent of a basketful of summer berries, the aromas are concentrated yet maintain an unmatched freshness. More brooding elements of loganberry and hints of pepper are also apparent and provide the mid-bass range to complete a layered aromatic profile. Upon entry, this wine showcases the cool climate nature of the Russian River Valley with refreshing acidity that carries the dark berry flavors to a long, satisfying finish. Made in traditional Williams Selyem style with the dairy tanks and gentle handling, the palate profile is balanced and round.
2022 Bacigalupi Vineyard Zinfandel
Reviews
94 / James Suckling
So rich in blackberries, raspberries and sage flavors on a full body, yet sleek and easy to sip. A big but balanced wine that’s rather high in alcohol, very rich in dried fruit flavors, but vivid in acidity and gentle in tannins. A bold example of super-ripe grapes handled in a gentle, careful style like pinot noir. Drink now or hold. – J.G.
