2011 Wine Guerrilla Clopton Vineyard Old Vine Zinfandel, Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, CA, $40 (S) – Rating 92

This is what old vine Zinfandel is all about. Planted in 1880 this is an intriguing field blend of Zinfandel, Alicante Bouchet and Golden Chasselas. The nose is rather fruit forward with aromas of dark fruit, plum and blueberry pie. Full-bodied with dark fruit flavors blended with notes of ripe strawberry, plum and a touch of blueberry. Balanced tannins and acidity with a very long finish highlighted by hints cocoa. Buy This Wine
