RENWOOD Zinfandel 'Grandpere' 2014

The 2014 Renwood 'Grandpere' Zinfandel is another gorgeous release from this storied Amador estate. Needing at least an hour in the decanter to settle, this wine was sourced from younger vines planted 21 years ago and was aged for 21 months in 25% new French oak prior to bottling. As this slowly opens it releases aromas of bing cherry, black plum and spicebox elements. The mouthfeel is lovely as the wine reveals rich flavors of blueberry compote, wild blackberry preserves, black tea, anise and dark chocolate shavings. This has lovely poise, purity and intensity with the potential to age. (Best 2017-2027) - March, 2017 (OB)
