2021 The Defector

Reserve Zinfandel
 

92 POINTS - Wine Enthusiast

As always, our favorite Templeton Gap vineyard, the Briarwood Vineyard, produced Zinfandel grapes of truly exceptional quality. We used only the very best barrels of the vintage for this Reserve bottling and we are thrilled to share this luxurious wine with you. Drink it now or cellar it to enjoy later. We feel the wine will continue to improve for at least the next 5 - 7 years and probably well beyond.

During that time, should you find yourself tasked with convincing an enemy agent to defect to your side, we think tempting them with a bottle of this lush, bold, velvety Zinfandel would be highly effective tradecraft.

Pair this delicious, fruit forward Zinfandel with sticky, barbequed meats or spicy dishes. Or simply enjoy a glass with a favorite spy novel.

"Crunchy black raspberry and lavender aromas are warmed up with toasted wood spice on the nose of this bottling. The palate follows a similar track, offering purple fruit and flower flavors."  ~ Matt Kettmann, Wine Enthusiast Magazine
