2022 Carol Shelton Wild Thing Old Vine Zinfandel [WS90]

Producer: Carol Shelton Region: Mendocino County, California Varietal: 76% Zinfandel, 10% Carignane, 9% Petite Sirah, 5% Other Reds Year: 2022  Wine Spectator, 90 Points  "Notes of raspberry jam combines with a zesty, briary structure in this Zin, which also serves up roasted sage and green peppercorn flavors. The tannins firm up the finish. Drink now through 2029."  Winemaker Notes:  "Aromas of black cherry, ripe plum and raspberry fruit combine with a hint of graphite, cigar box, and vanilla-oak baking spice loveliness. Smoothly textured in the mouth, and the palate is very creamy and round, with a finish that is long with lush jammy fruit."   Alcohol: 14.5%   *Price and availability in store may vary.
