2022 Birichino Zinfandel Gimelli Vineyard Old Vines

Country: U.S.A. Region: Central Coast Vintage: 2022 Cépage: Zinfandel (100%) Size: 750 ml Rating(s): 92 (RP) " Due to its elevated ripeness and alcohol content, the 2022 Zinfandel Gimelli Vineyard Old Vines is an outlier within the Birichino range, although it does an admirable job of maintaining verve and balance. The nose leads with meaty, herbal aromas of pepperoncini, oregano and cured meats. The palate is lusciously full-bodied with a taut core of focused fruit flavors that keep things in check, leading to a juicy, quenching and subtly powdery finish." Matthew Luczy (RP) - 10.24
