Del Carlo Winery 2006 Teldeschi Vineyards Home Ranch Old Vine Zinfandel (Dry Creek Valley)
- $32
Here’s a very dry, tannic young Zinfandel that shows real depth and complexity. It has the rugged mouthfeel and spicy, peppery flavors that mark a good Dry Creek Zin. The fruit suggests wild black, blue and red berries. Drink now.

Del Carlo Winery 2007 Old Vine Zinfandel (Dry Creek Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $32
A rich, complex Zinfandel, showing the rustic mouthfeel sometimes found in Dry Creek reds. The tannins are strong and jagged, and the berry and cherry flavors have a wild, briary taste. But the finish is bone dry, and the wine grows more interesting as it breathes in the glass.

Del Carlo Winery 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon (Dry Creek Valley)
- $30
Shows the rustic, sandpapery tannins often found in Dry Creek reds, and also the exotic spiciness you might encounter in a Zinfandel. Otherwise, the blackberry, currant and cedar flavors nicely illustrate Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now.

Briary in taste and texture, with nettle, spicy pepper and bitter wild berryskin flavors, although there’s enough cherry fruit to satisfy. An interesting wine of a place, with distinctive qualities.

A nasty wine, dirty, hot and harsh. Almost undrinkable, except for some decent berry flavors.
