Ballentine 2021 Zinfandel, Napa Valley95 Points 95 Points The Wine Independent: "The Ballentine 2021 Zinfandel Estate Grown, with 5% Petite Sirah and 2% Malbec in the blend, is medium to deep garnet purple in color. It rolls out with fragrant notes of baked black cherries, fruitcake, and raspberry preserves plus hints of Chinese five spice, rose oil, and black tea. The full bodied palate delivers great tension and intensity, with lighly chewy tannins and a long perfumed finish." (Lisa

Readers should take that to heart

firm and earthy in the mouth

with plenty of richness and depth

dry Champagne is a blend of two-thirds black grapes (Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier) for body

A Zin that benefits from a few years in the cellar to develop gravitas and wow factor

seamless texture

flinty streaks and plenty of refreshing acidity to carry the long finish

presents the exceptional 2021 vintage

allowing for full flavor development
