Note di degustazione
The dark ruby/purple-tinged 2013 Zinfandel Papera Ranch (802 cases and 15.3% alcohol) comes from a vineyard planted in 1934. This wine has a big sweet kiss of black cherries and a somewhat monolithic mouthfeel, but with coaxing starts to offer up ripe strawberry, damp earth, wild mulberry and briary mountain berry notes. The wine is chewy, with good acidity and freshness and should drink nicely for at least a decade.

As always, the 2013 Zinfandel Papera Ranch is one of the silkiest, most polished wines in the range. Crushed flowers, sweet red cherries, tobacco and mint build in an effortless, gracious wine long on class and personality. The Papera includes a small amount (4%) of Carignane, which, hard as it seems to believe, really makes a difference in the wine's character and feel. Papera, one of Sonoma's heritage sites, was planted in 1934.
