Haraszthy 2008 Zinfandel (Howell Mountain)

Price $25

Rich and forward in jammy black cherry, raspberry and spice flavors, this Zinfandel drinks well now. It’s a tannic wine, as you’d expect off Howell Mountain, but those tannins are refined and sweet. Drink now with a nice steak. — S.H. (5/1/2011)

Haraszthy 2008 Zinfandel (Sonoma County)

Price $20

A good, rugged Zinfandel, tannic and spicy, with a rustic mouthfeel framing wild berry, currant, licorice, beef jerky and spice flavors. Drink now with spicy pork, beef and chicken dishes. — S.H. (5/1/2011)

Haraszthy 2008 Lodi Old Vine Zinfandel (Lodi)

Price $13

Haraszthy’s old-vine wine has a good Zin nose and great mouthfeel and just the right balance of spice and plumminess. Medium in weight it’s not heavy-handed the way old-vine Zin can often be, tasting of just-ripe blackberries, but the spice that’s so nice throughout doesn’t stick around for the finish. — V.B.

Haraszthy 2008 Zinfandel (Amador County)

Online Exclusive

Price $15

Val Haraszthy, the great-great-grandson of California viticultural pioneer Agoston Haraszthy, has made California Zins his focus, with offerings from Sonoma, Howell Mountain and here, Amador County. The result here is a tad rough, an unbelievably big (15.6% alcohol) wine that doesn’t deliver much yet in terms of aroma or taste. Maybe in time? — V.B. (6/1/2011)
