Truett-Hurst, Dry Creek Valley (Sonoma County, California) Old Vine Zinfandel 2019

Nov 16, 2022

By Rich Cook

 Truett-Hurst’s “Red Rooster” is a bright, super ripe Zinfandel that gets all the lively jammy flavors that fans adore, but keeps pepper and citric notes that keep it from becoming ponderous or heavy.  Blackberry, raspberry, pepper and fall spice aromas and flavors are fully integrated and the finish is long and bright.  I would go so far as to say that this will work with holiday turkey as well as red meats of all kinds.
