Score 90/100 · Drink 2017-2022, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2016

Vineyard 29's 2014 Zinfandel Aida Estate is super distinctive. Like all of the estate's wines, the Zinfandel is deep, rich and succulent in style. Dark stone fruit, menthol and licorice notes are all pushed forward. The 2014 is 88% Zinfandel and 12% Petite Sirah.

The 2014 Zinfandel Aida Estate (2014 is a somewhat better vintage for Zinfandel than 2013) from 40-year-old vines, comes across like a French Rhône Valley Châteauneuf du Pape. Loads of lavender, Provençal herbs, pepper, blackcurrants and black cherries soar from the glass of this dense, purple wine, which is a blend of 88% Zinfandel and 12% Petite Sirah from the rocky soils of the Aida estate. It is deep, full-bodied and aged 20 months in 500-liter French puncheons. This is a fabulous Zinfandel and one of the finest I tasted in what is a strong vintage for Zinfandel. Unfortunately, only about 300 cases were made.
