Carlisle 2022 Papera Ranch Zinfandel, Russian River Valley
Limited new Zinfandel from Carlisle.95 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "A youthful magenta/purple-tinged color, the Carlisle 2022 Zinfandel Papera Ranch reveals more high-toned aromas of cinnamon, juicy fresh mixed berry fruit, and fresh pine. Medium to full-bodied, it has a more linear feel at this stage. It’ss going to take time to open up and show its best, but I love its more nervous energy at this stage already. Drink 2025-2040. I love it." 95 Points Wine Spectator: "Impeccably structured and rich with personality, this red captures the essence of Russian River Zin, offering dark cherry and blackberry flavors accented by fruitcake spices, dried fig, orange oil and savory pepper tones that finish with youthful but polished tannins. Drink now through 2035. 1,044 cases made."Robert Parker: "...From humble beginnings in 1998, Carlisle continues to go from strength to strength, growing from a solid philosophy of sourcing mainly Zinfandel and Rhône varieties from ancient vineyards in Sonoma
