Ode to Lulu California Old Vine Rosé Blend 2017

It’s rosé season in spirit in Chicago. This is a great one. Nice balance of the acid you expect with lush fruit off the old Mourvèdre vines. Wish I had more bottles for actual warm weather. — 7 years ago

On the nose, red perfumed florals, dark cherries, cherries, strawberry preserves, cherries and pomegranate. On the palate, cherries, dark cherries, strawberries, pomegranate, fragrant florals for days, nice soft spices, cinnamon, vanilla, powdery tannins & minerality. The fruits brighten and the spices grow on the long polished rounded acid finish. Photos one shows their low yields and photo two shows the staff enjoying second breakfast. — 8 years ago

Gamba

Gamba Estate Vineyard Old Vine Zinfandel 2015

Deep, intense. Almost a purple colored pour with a youthful purple fruit nose. Entry of dark and dense dirty purple fruit, with a little bit of heat that blew off after about 20 minutes. Added cinnamon and vanilla cookie type of note in the middle. Despite the air, this was still had some pretty stiff and youthful tannin. Drank very well, but I know that with slow ox this one will probably be amazing tomorrow. If you have one of these, I would hold on to it for at least a couple of years. — 7 years ago

This is right down the middle of the fairway zin. Fruity, jammy, but not flabby. Mark said it best...there is definitely some cinnamon to this, as well as cookie. Blackberry preserves on the nose lure you in. While a slow-ox decant would help, these are meant to be consumed early.
