Dry Creek Vineyard Old Vine Zinfandel 2022 Review
Sonoma’s Dry Creek Valley is known for its Zinfandel. The area is home to a historic concentration of old vines that never really left. Made from vines over 95 years old, this wine helps keep the history of this place alive. Rhubarb and olive tapenade welcome the nose with touches of espresso and wild berry fruit. The mouthfeel is rich with a grippy edge. The finish is lingering and pleasant.
