McCay Cellars 2008 Zinfandel (Russian River Valley)

  1. $28
That this small-lot Lodi producer has ventured out to the Russian River Valley for Zinfandel says something here and it says it with finesse, this being austere for Zin, not jammy, with enviable structure and a nice lift of black cherry, spicy cola and earth at the end.  — V.B.  (3/1/2012)

McCay Cellars 2008 Equity Zinfandel (Lodi)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $24
Soft and dense with dark fruit, almost baked fruit flavors, that veer into nuts and vanilla, an easy-drinking Zin blended with a smidge of Zin from the 2009 and 2010 vintages as well as 7% Petite Sirah crafted by a Lodi producer to watch.  — V.B.  (2/1/2012)

McCay Cellars 2008 Paisley Red (Lodi)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $24
McCay is a producer to watch in Lodi and this wine is a perfect example of why. A blend of four different Zinfandels and Petite Sirah, it opens with a nose of baked blackberry clafouti with a bit of hazelnut and almond, a still-tight wine that with air shows a ton of structure and layered tannins.  — V.B.  (5/1/2012)

McCay Cellars 2008 Petite Sirah (Lodi)

  1. $24
There’s no doubt this is 100-percent Petite Sirah, full of dark plummy fruit and an earthy element that’s close to mushrooms and dirt. Aged over two years in French oak the wine even has a slight hint of game and caramel. The tannins are soft but ample.  — V.B.  (4/1/2012)
