Frog's Leap Zinfandel 2022

Intense red-black fruit, with a touch of warmth from the dry year. Intense floral aromas pop out on top. Rich, dense and more tannic than usual, this is a meaty Zin, and yet the olive-mineral character that I find natural to Napa Zin manages to stick out through the density, giving the wine its classic balance. A very cool cellar temp (around 50°F/10°C) really brings out its floral-savory lift.

Blend: 85% Zinfandel, 14% Petite Sirah, 1% Carrignane
