| Community Tasting Notes (average 87.8 pts. and median of 88 pts. in 12 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | Tasted by Paulzzz on 6/13/2018 & rated 92 points: Fruity aroma, very fruity, with blackberries, raspberries, and some chocolate if you wait for it. Jammy taste with red cherries, blackberries, strawberries, and raspberries (did I miss any). A berry long finish, not quite strong. Wow, a great wine - seems to have changed a bit from my last bottle which was excellent, this is better.

| Mazzocco 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 Sonoma CountyMendocino CountyDry Creek Valley Winegrowers of Dry Creek Valley | Dry Creek Valley Association | Appellation America | San Francisco Chronicle Article |
