Mettler Family Vineyards, Lodi (California) Old Vine Zinfandel 2017

Jan 20, 2020

By Rich Cook

 The Mettler gang reins in the Epicenter a bit this vintage, and I like the result.  A brambly, forward nose leads to a rich palate that uses moderate oak toast to enhance the mix of berries and pepper, and the finish has an easy grip that gives the fruit a nice push.  Well done!
