Note di degustazione
The 2017 Zinfandel Ponzo Vineyards is blended of 98% Zinfandel and 2% Petite Sirah. It aged ten months in 100% air-dried American oak, 10% new. Medium ruby-purple colored, it opens with youthfully gregarious aromas of sliced stone fruits (smoked cranberries and red cherries), desiccated flowers, baked blueberries and gobs of underbrush, licorice and exotic spices. It's medium to full-bodied, layered, perfumed and light on its feet, with a ripe, grainy frame and just enough juicy freshness on the long, floral finish.

Mostly Zinfandel (there's 2% Petite Sirah), the 2017 Zinfandel Ponzo sports a deep purple color as well as a juicy bouquet of blueberries, plums, licorice, and toasted spices. It's a rounded, medium to full-bodied, supple, seamless beauty with plenty of sweet fruit, no hard edges, and a great finish. It's another terrific Zinfandel from this team to enjoy over the coming decade.
The 2017 Zinfandel Ponzo, from a vineyard in the Russian River Valley, is bright, perfumed and light on its feet. Floral overtones, vibrant red fruit and mid-weight structure are front and center. This is another 2017 that really impresses with its pulsing acids and Pinot-like feel.
Very attractive, fresh dark raspberries, red plums and blackcurrants in an upbeat mode. The palate is very plush and succulent with elegance, good weight and depth. The tannin definition really impresses. 98% zinfandel and 2% petite sirah. Drink or hold.
