2024 Carlisle Vineyard Zinfandel

Another classic in the making, there is a lot to like about this century-old Zinfandel vineyard. Situated in the epicenter of great, old vineyards, Carlisle Vineyard exhibits wild berry fruits such as huckleberry and mulberry. Owing to some mixed black varieties interplanted amongst the Zinfandel vines, the wine always exhibits a delightful Asian spice, or five-spice that seems to meld into a plum sauce character. Upon entry, the wine completely envelopes the palate with fruit and turns perfumy, alluring the senses. Precise acidity balances out the richness of the wine to offer harmony and elegance.
