Pagani Ranch Sonoma Valley Zinfandel Blend 2012

I love properly aged Ridge. At 12 years old this shows no bricking but hints at maturity with a slightly carmelized sweetness. 2012 was a cool year and this bottle is more elegant than some other Paganis. 👍👍 — 20 days ago

Unfiltered Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel 2018

Poured into a decanter about two hours prior to dinner. There was some decent sediment so I left the last ounce or so in the bottle. In the glass, the 2018 pours a deep ruby with a translucent core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, this is absolutely gorgeous with heady notes of fresh ripe blackberries, black cherries, pomegranate molasses, tobacco, black pepper, some dry earth and beautiful integrated baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Beautifully balanced. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and has a satisfying melange of fruit and spice. This is fabulous with some air right now but I expect it will age beautifully through 2038. — a month ago

2004 vintage. Decanted and tasted after an hour. This was fuller and more complex than any of the other < 2010 Marcassin (Marcassin Vyd) Pinots I’ve had lately. Big, staying power. 3.5.24. — 23 days ago
