Hendry Zinfandel, Vineyard Block 7, Napa Valley |
| - |
Napa is not well known for its Zinfandel but this wine makes one wonder why. |
| - |
It's almost as if someone took a good Bordeaux wine and mixed in a dollap of white pepper and blackberry jam (without the sugar of course). |
| - |
A beautiful long finish with the classic spicy Zinfandel aura wraps up this elegant yet powerful package. |
| |
|
Chappellet Merlot, Napa Valley |
| - |
Dark cassis and black cherry flavors dominate this wine. |
| - |
Cedar and cigar box notes hide underneath a dose of vanilla and toast from the new French Oak barrels. |
| - |
The fruit is intense enough to handle the oak treatment. |
| - |
It carries an almost blueberry like character to the finish |
| - |
Reminiscent of the great Washington State Merlot - but this wine has a finesse that is typical of great Napa Valley Merlots |
