2000 Dry Creek Vineyard Old Vines Zinfandel Dry Creek, Sonoma, California WB Rating: 87 Alcohol by volume: 14.5% Price at time of purchase: $21.00 (from winery) Type: Zinfandel Principal varietal(s): 76% Zinfandel, 24% Petite Sirah Another dandy Zinfandel from this reliable winery. Elegantly styled and drinking well now, this wine, made from 85 year old vines, shows ripe Santa Rosa plum and raspberry fruit flavors, a round mouth feel, well controlled oak, and a clean if not extensive finish. Dry Creek Zins have always been fairly priced, and they seem to be widely available. Good buy. - WB exec team 2002-07-05 [Back] |
