Ghost Block Pelissa Vineyard Zinfandel 2017
Winemaker Notes
Zinfandel from Oakville, Napa Valley, California. With Napa Valley elegance, this single-vineyard Zinfandel offers layers of complex flavors. Bursting with aromas of floral and wild cherry fruit with dusty undertones. This wine is balanced with well-integrated oak essences of cedar, vanilla, and dill. A smooth and luscious finish with framing tannins, that coats your entire palate, will keep you sipping for more.
Critical Acclaim
Connoisseurs' Guide 91: This expressive, very well-made wine proves that ripeness, deep fruit, and real polish are all within good Zinfandel’s grasp all at once. Its careful marriage of sweet oak, slight briary spice, and sustained blackberry fruit earn it an enthusiastic recommendation, and it gets an extra round of applause for its careful balance and seamless construction. It is structured to age gracefully and should do so for a good half-decade or more, but its enjoyment in no way depends on waiting.
