Forgotten Vines Zinfandel Reviews

Score: Silver | February 6, 2014 | American Fine Wine Competition
Score: 89 | December 1, 2013 | The Wine Advocate
The 2010 Zinfandel Forgotten Vines spent 15 months in a combination of French and American oak. It possesses a healthy dark ruby color along with impressive cherry, raspberry and cranberry fruit notes intermixed with notions of pepper and spice, medium to full body, and lots of character and personality. Drink this excellent Zinfandel over the next 4-5 years.

(raised for 15 months in a combination of French and American oak; 15.5% alcohol): Opaque ruby. Ripe cherry and singed plum on the nose and in the mouth. Warm and supple in texture, with a note of finishing heat and soft tannins coming on late. Plenty rich but I wish that there were more vivacity here.
