2016 Carlisle Zinfandel Dry Creek Valley
4/28/2024 - Charlie C Likes this wine: 92 Points
Soft, translucent cherry red color. Spicy on the nose with raspberry accents. Smooth, crisp, clean on the palate, bright raspberry and cherry fruit. Bit one dimensional but really enjoyable. Soft tannins, bright, pleasing acidity, great balance. Lingering finish of bright red fruits. Nothing profound here, but what a joy to drink. Drink next 4 years.

Dark cherry red color with faint translucence. Earthy, berry nose. Dark fruited on the palate, black cherries, blackberry, tobacco. Gets brighter with air. The cherry fruit comes more to the fore. Smooth tannins, bright acidity, excellent balance. Finishes long, long, smoky and dark-fruited. Fully mature. Give it lots of air. Throwing fair amount of sediment. Drink over the next 3 years.
