Macchia 2001 Barbero Vineyard, Voluptuous Zinfandel (Lodi)

  1. $18
A big, jammy style, with plenty of up-front plum, black cherry, blackberry and spice flavors. Coffee and chocolate line the edges, with bright acidity at the end.  — W.E.  (11/1/2003)

Macchia 2001 Clock Spring Vineyard Zinfandel (Amador County)

  1. $16
Kicks off with vanilla and spice notes. The flavors lean toward ripe cherry and plum, though the oak is quite forward and tends to mask the pretty fruit. Tannins are powdery but ripe.  — W.E.  (11/1/2003)

Macchia 2001 Generous Zinfandel (Lodi)

  1. $16
A full-bodied, slightly sweet style that touts a wellspring of tea, coffee and herb flavors at first, then follows with spicy cherry and blackberry notes. Zippy on the end.  — W.E.  (11/1/2003)

Macchia 2001 Linsteadt Vineyard Zinfandel (Amador County)

  1. $20
Toasty oak frames this plummy, spicy wine. The flavors extend to cherry and herbs as well and offer a smoky, beefy quality on the finish. This wine is a bit on the zippy side at the end.  — W.E.  (11/1/2003)

Macchia 2005 Mischievous Old Vine Zinfandel (Lodi)

  1. $18
Soft, semi-sweet and simple, with jellied raspberry, cherry and blackberry flavors, this high-alcohol (15.7%) wine has a problematic vegetal taste throughout.  — S.H.  (12/15/2007)

Macchia 2005 Soucie Vineyard Generous Old Vine Zinfandel (Lodi)

  1. $22
With 16% alcohol, this wine has a vegetal edge to the sugary-sweet chocolate and raspberry flavors. They say the vines are 90 years old.  — S.H.  (12/15/2007)
