Ruby red in color. 14.2% ABV. Pretty nose of red fruits, citrus and earth. Medium body with perfect acidity. Crisp and fresh with an abundance of tart fruits. Cranberry, pomegranate, blood orange and earth on the palate. Exceptional length on the finish. Delicious and easy to drink but I confess a preference for the 2019. Best over the next several years.

This was delicious. Needed about 20 minutes or so for the candied element of the fruit aromas to dissipate. Continued to open up nicely to be a balanced young Zin. Got better as the night went on. Don't touch the other one for a couple years to see how it evolves.

Pop and pour, loads of fruit, medium weight, very fresh and vibrant. More in the Sandlands style than clear Zinfandel. Tasty either way, but plenty of life left.
