Seghesio Seghesio Old Vine Zinfandel 2023 750ml

The 2023 Zinfandel Old Vine is largely from the Saini family vineyard, about 60%, with San Lorenzo fruit from Pete Seghesio and another source. It also includes 7% Petite Sirah, 5% Carignane, 3% Alicante Bouschet, and 2% mixed reds. It pours a deeper purple/ruby color and has bright red fruit alongside darker, more compact berry tones, with rich tannins and a more compact structure and core. It can benefit from another year or more in bottle, as this is not a simple fruity style. Black cherries and brambly earth emerge with full-bodied richness that remains chiseled and reined in. Drink 2026-2036.

An old-school Zin that's loaded with zest and briar patch, plus raspberry, savory anise and white pepper flavors that end with snappy tannins. Drink now through 2033. 8,154 cases made.
