1979 Dry Creek Vineyard Zinfandel

Birth year zinfandel and first bottle of the New Year, unknown provenance. Cork was pulled with the ah-so, was in decent shape. Balsamic vinegar and some mustiness on the nose. Some black fruit and plum flavors with some notes of balsamic, mushroom, and some dustiness. Pleasantly interesting for a wine of this age.

Not my favorite, despite enjoying some others from this producer. Smoke, tart cherry, and still a bit tannic. Will wait on the other syrahs I have from Cabot.

Nice wine. Earth and lots of black and blue fruit on the nose. Blackberry, tobacco, leather, and herbal notes on the palate. A bit past prime for my palate, but enjoyable nonetheless.
