Note di degustazione
The 2016 Zinfandel Lilly Hill Estate is medium to deep ruby-purple in color. Aromas flood from the glass—warm apricots, nectarines and white peaches—with layers of mixed berry jam and touches of lavender and garrigue. The palate is medium to full-bodied with explosive flavor layers streaked with stony notions. It has firm, grainy tannins and lip-smacking freshness on the very long finish. I love this technicolor style! 580 cases produced.

Red-plum and licorice aromas here with roses and leafy notes. The palate has a rich core of spiced-plum flavor and supple, smooth-honed tannins. Drink or hold.
A blend of 96% Zinfandel and 4% Petite Sirah, the 2016 Zinfandel Lily Hill Estate comes from a site in the Dry Creek Valley and was brought up in a combination of French and Hungarian oak. Classic spiced red plums, incense, brambly herbs, and cedar notes all give way to a medium-bodied, elegant red that has nicely integrated acidity, ripe tannins, and a sexy yet elegant style that's going to evolve for over a decade. It's easily the most elegant and vibrant in the lineup, and is a beautiful wine.
