Tasting notes
Good deep red. Pungent aromas of raspberry and flowers; rather pinot-like. Juicy but slightly diffuse flavors of red berries and spices. Higher in alcohol than the 2001 version (15.4%, vs. 14.7%), but shows a bit less flavor definition.

There are only 175 cases of the 2002 Zinfandel Vineyard 101 (15.4% alcohol). Sweet kirsch liqueur notes intertwined with licorice, sandstone, balsam wood, and spice emerge from this surprisingly elegant, medium to full-bodied 2002. Once again, amazing purity of fruit, a hallmark of this producer, is present. Drink it over the next 4-5 years. NOTE: This is an estimated price per bottle. Tel. (707) 963-0940; Fax (707) 963-8683
