(423 views) | | Tasted by MRGeo on 11/24/2022 & rated 94 points: Love thous wine. Decanted for an hour, definitely changed over time. Good nose, light fruit. Dark purple color. Had a nice fruit forward, not too jammy feel with great flavors - Flavors of ripe berries, licorice, baking spices and hint of pepper. A real pleasure from a hidden gem winery.

A medium to full bodied red, with black cherry, blueberry, vanilla and spice box on long finish. In a good drinking zone. www.winelx.com (1227 views) | | Tasted by GiWineDoc on 5/23/2020 & rated 95 points: Fantastic (1388 views) | | Tasted by Klainetal on 3/26/2020 & rated 87 points: Very fruit forward. spice and a mid finish.

(1186 views) | | Tasted by seijaro on 10/12/2019 & rated 93 points: A really good Zin, big and powerful with a touch of sweetness. We didn't like it as much as the Outpost that was $10 less so not a buyer for us. (1197 views) | | Tasted by DougSamuel on 8/23/2019 & rated 94 points: Decanted and then consumed over next 2-3 hours. Big wine, with Rich concentrated dark red fruits. Drinks very smooth and easy with lovely, balanced texture. Hint of currant that reminds of cab that is the Jayne hallmark, but still the peppery-ness of a zin. A real pleasure. Decant this zin, and have a glass of something else then enjoy this wine. (1141 views) | | Tasted by buckeye76 on 3/24/2019: This is just a very ripe huge fruit bomb. Black cherries, dried plums, blueberries, and chocolate with floral hints. Absolutely full bodied, it was nearly impossible to drink overpowering any food and almost too rich to drink on its own, and that was true on the second night as well. I will wait several years to try this again, and hopefully it will settle down.

A little confused, short finish. Needs more time in the bottle. (1382 views) | | Tasted by bestdamncab on 8/13/2017 & rated 94 points: ZAP Simply Summer Celebration, nose of black fruit, pepper, allspice, and a touch of mocha, same on the palate, big body, almost elegant, this vineyard can easily age 12 years in the bottle, a favorite vineyard of mine, needs 3 years to peak drinking window, more Bordeaux like than other Zinfandels tasted today, long, long finish.

| Chase Producer websiteZinfandel ZAP: Zinfandel Advocates & Producers | Varietal character (Appellation America) | Wikipedia-ZinfandelUSAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Napa Valley Napa Valley Wineries and Wine (Napa Valley Vintners)St. Helena Appellation Napa Valley The single vineyards on weinlagen-info |
