Daniel Ciolek

Monte de Oro seems to step up their game every year with the Zinfandel (22% Petite Syrah). I’m not a fan of the grape but this winery makes it work. Dark fruit and tobacco on the nose. Dense on the palate. Earthy tobacco, graphite, black pepper, date, nutmeg. Moderate finish of oak and tobacco.
