Once and Future Wine Zinfandel Forcini Vineyard 2016  - First Bottle

Reviews

92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Zinfandel Forcini Vineyard is a little reticent to begin, opening out beautifully to reveal baked plums, blackberry pie and dried mulberries notes with touches of chargrill, tar and black pepper plus a waft of hoisin. Full-bodied and firmly structured with chewy tannins and great freshness, it has tons of spicy black fruit preserves flavors, finishing long and savory. 250 cases produced.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
Joel Peterson is a legend in wine circles -- he founded Ravenswood. Today, having sold it long ago, he makes small batches of lusty, delicious wine from heritage vineyards. This wine is fruit driven and pure, just bubbling with personality, freshness and acidity. It's packed with classic zin-berry and dehydrated blackberry with plenty of natural acidity to lift up the fruit so it remains pure and fresh despite its ripeness. This is our kind of Zin from the man who started it all.
