Really coming into it's own now. Sadly, my last bottle!

As others have said, very little crispness to this. Seems to be fading fast.

Promising, but needs some time.

Delicious with superb balance.

1/16/2022 - wrm Likes this wine:

A solid wine upon opening, that took on depth and complexity over the few days that we enjoyed it.

1/23/2022 - wrm Likes this wine:

This improved quite a bit over the few days we had it open.

Smooth, spicy red fruit. Great QPR.

12/20/2021 - wrm Likes this wine:

Approachable now, but plenty of life left in this one.

11/5/2021 - wrm Likes this wine:

Balanced, good QPR.

For me, not quite as good as the 2018 at this point. Might benefit from a little time. Still a decent QPR.

Delightfully forward, although not overly complex.

A good wine, although to took a couple of days after opening to come together. I will wait a couple years on the next bottle.

8/29/2021 - wrm Likes this wine:

Really singing after being open for about an hour.

8/17/2021 - wrm Likes this wine:

Easy drinking, not too complex, but with bright fruit and a nice acidity.

6/25/2021 - wrm Likes this wine:

A zesty, spicy zin with quite a bit of character for a wine at this price. Nice QPR.

6/17/2021 - wrm Likes this wine:

Just off-dry enough to pair really nicely with a spicy meal.

This inky beast was much better on day 2. Today it was a hammer covered in velvet, yesterday it was just a hammer. Recommend at least a couple more years in the cellar unless you plan a 24-hour or so decant.

Very good now, but should be even better in a couple years.

Pnp. On the first day was still quite brawny and tannic. Much better on the third day. Patience required here.

7/28/2020 - wrm Does not like this wine:

Ueberroth has long been one of my favorite Zinfandels, but this bottle was disappointing. Too juicy, lacking structure, lift, or balance.

My first-ever Pet Nat, but I really enjoyed this.

Loads of fruit, balanced with vibrant acidity. A great pet.

Young, lively, and complex. Should improve with time although very enjoyable now.

Balanced, yet lively with nice acidity.

This bottle wasn't flawed, as some others have reported, but did need some decanting.

The fruit is there, but this wine needs time to resolve acidity that seems to be more than ample. Came across as much less ready than I remember when tasting at the winery in early Feb'19.

Fantastic on day 2, for which it was rated.

2/14/2019 - wrm Likes this wine:

Drinking beautifully right now.

1/16/2019 - wrm Likes this wine:

Dark and deeply pitched, with earthy aromatics. This wine is quite enjoyable today, yet I'm looking forward to tracking its development over the next several years.

Drinking wonderfully right now.
