| 2009 Dutton-Goldfield Zinfandel Dutton Ranch, Morelli Lane Vineyard Russian River, Sonoma, California WB Rating: 89 Alcohol by volume: 14.5% Price at time of purchase: $40.00 (from winery) Type: Zinfandel Principal varietal(s): Zinfandel The usual silky smooth and flavorful Morelli Zin, though for whatever reason I found the '09 a bit less intense and lively than the '08. It still has that enticing Pinot-like elegance and refinement, though, with tasty dark cherry and raspberry fruit and excellent balance and length. Very good Zin with food as it is neither over-ripe nor overly high in alchohol. - HK 2012-06-14 [Back] |
