DeLoach Private Collection Zinfandel 2019

With intense red berry and spice characteristics and a trademark silkiness, Zinfandel has earned quite a big following. Especially in Lodi, aka the Zinfandel Capital of California, where it reaches its apex of juicy-rich ripeness. Exhibit A: DeLoach Private Collection Zinfandel, a delicious fruit-rich pour with delightful peppery accents.

We’ve known for years that our good friends at DeLoach (a 12-time Wine & Spirits Winery of the Year) can make a real stunner, and we were finally able to convince them to part with a small lot of their sought-after personal reserve. Just wait until you taste it.

Made by the estate's talented head winemaker, Brian Maloney, with grapes from low-yielding old vines, it’s immediately enticing with aromas of ripe raspberry and black cherry preserves, lifted by floral accents. Layers of dark berries and dried plums unfurl on the palate, flecked with notes of white pepper and smoky oak. It'd be a surefire winner with roasted turkey and other poultry, beef, hearty rice dishes, and more.
