Steve Ledson’s team know how to get at the heart of what Dry Creek has to offer when it comes to Zinfandel, and this bottling is one of their best to date. Plush black fruit gets a boost from gentle oak toast and spice, and supple structure keeps pushing the mix through a long, well integrated finish. I like it when a wine is worthy of its “Reserve” designation. A Platinum Award winner at the 2021 Critics Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
