More Reviews

Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Truchard uses a tiny 4-acre (1.6 ha) vineyard for the creation of high-quality, small-production Zinfandel. They mature the wines for 10 months in a combination of French and American oak (35% new). The winery claims this is the only Zinfandel produced exclusively from Napa Valley Carneros fruit. The results speak for themselves. Look for black cherry, cranberry and boysenberry aromas overlaid with hints of mint, cedar and black pepper. Dry, with exceptional fruit, soft tannins and vibrant acidity conspiring to produce an extremely well-balanced wine.
