Seemed a lot younger than a bottle in 2021, with the extremely primary fruit to the fore. Silky body, lots of dark plummy fruit, some coffee and concentrated cassis. It's a lovely wine but seemed a bit too 'in your face' today.

43rd Annual Zinfandel Retrospective - the 2016s (R&D’s): Blind. Red color with a slightly lighter meniscus. Aromas of red berry fruit, blueberry and peppery spice. Full-bodied with flavors of herbs, red berries, plum and briary dark fruit. Balanced. Juicy and lush, with a lingering finish. Excellent. 92+ pts. (R&D)
My #3, Domino's #8 Group #3, 26 pts.

Rich and spice driven. Held up well with spicy Asian food.
