Carol Shelton Wines, Mendocino County (California) Old Vine Zinfandel 2016

Feb 25, 2019

By Michael Franz

 A juicy, fun rendition of Zinfandel with a high ratio of flavor to structure, this will please a great many palates.  Soft red fruit is the lead note, but darker tones are also evident around the edges, with just enough tannic grip in the finish to firm everything up for a clean finish.  A Double Gold Award winner at the 2019 Toast of the Coast International Wine Competition.
