The bottling is a homage to old-vine Zinfandel—the grapes are indeed wild things. It is concentrated, with aromas of blackberry, blueberry, florals, molasses, black pepper and toasty oak on the nose. The flavors on the palate are ripe black plum, huckleberry coulis and allspice morphing into grilled orange slice, chicory and a dry long, finish. Decant and enjoy with a grilled portobello mushroom burger. (Tonya Pitts)

Right out of the briar patch, this Zin is appealingly rustic, with zesty cherry, cranberry, roasted sage and cracked pepper flavors. Drink now through 2031. 7,614 cases made. (Tim Fish)
