Shannon Ridge High Elevation California Zinfandel 2021

This Zinfandel has ripe fruit characters of blackberry and plum. The mid-palate is an explosion of spices and fruit, balanced with soft oak notes and a structured finish. This delicious, smooth and nicely ripe wine is saturated in black plums and strawberries that fill out the full body. Light tannins and good concentration combine for a tasty, gluggable wine.

Flavours of mature fruits, hazelnut and pie spices. A hint of dark chocolate completes the texture and integrates with a touch of vanilla and toasted oak for a smooth finish.

ABV: 13.9%

Value

Rates with good Zinfandel

Good Value Barbera

This is very good value for money. A Piedmont red under $30! It has good dark fruit, some nice tannins and acid to balance although it would benefit from some more age to smooth it a bit but I liked its feistiness now.

Just right

Drinking really nicely at 5 years and a fair price

Cotes du Rhone.

A lovely well balanced red. One of the best Cotes du Rhone I have tasted.

Real value for money

I was happily surprised by the quality of the labels in the "mystery" case of rose wines - great value for the money I must say. Excellent drinking experience from the unfamiliar labels and happy to enjoy again the familiar ones.
