DeLoach Vineyards Russian River Valley Zinfandel 2023 Review
Zinfandel is central to the story of DeLoach Vineyards. The winery was founded by Cecil and Christine DeLoach in 1970 when they purchased 24 acres of old vine Zinfandel in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley. And that’s where the estate still stands today. On the nose, aromas of black tea and autumn leaves mingle with peppercorns and blackberries. The mouthfeel has a fleshy softness, balanced by a very present yet well-managed acidity.
