The 2021 vintage is round and luscious, with loads of earthiness and sweet tobacco on the nose. Balanced tannins and acidity are the hallmark of this wine once again, with a bit more toasted oak evident in this vintage. Still a blend from two vineyards on Stice and Zinfandel Lanes, this vintage represents an increase in production from an acre replanted in 2014. After 22 months of aging in 40% new French oak barrels, this wine was bottled in December 2023 and is ready to drink now, but will age nicely.
