Drinking sweetly fruity and crisp now, this Pinot shows jammy flavors of raspberries, cherries, licorice and sweet cola. It has good acidity and is clean and interesting. Probably at its best now.

Calcareous 2002 Zinfandel (Paso Robles)
- Online Exclusive

Fairly rich in tannins, with well-ripened fruit that runs the gamut from cherries through blackberries to raisins, this is a big Zin. It’s dry and high in alcohol, and a great accompaniment to stews and barbecue.
