Russian River Valley Zinfandel Reviews

Score: 88 | December 31, 2022 | Wine Enthusiast

Ultraripe, ultrasmooth and seemingly sweet, this jammy-flavored, full-bodied and lowacidity wine boasts dried black fruits, cinnamon, cloves and a touch of honey.

Top Value: A zesty red, with bold raspberry and fresh pine tree aromas to the easygoing cherry and spice flavors.

Best Buy. A supple Russian River Valley zin, this has fat persimmon and salted plum flavors to balance the notes of peppermint and the sweetness of the alcohol. It turns savory with air, finishing clean.

Editor's Choice. Online Exclusive. Easy to like for its ripe fruit, cola, spice and meaty flavors. This is DeLoach's basic Zinfandel, and it's very good due to the balance that makes it so drinkable.

Floral raspberry and vanilla flavors lead to soft, appealing notes of blueberry, cherry and spice. Drink now through 2017.
