  Made in a cooler, lighter-bodied style, this wine appeals with cedar and wild strawberry, integrating the oak and letting the tannins mellow in the background.

• 201390 pts

  This pure, focused, fruity wine practically dances on the tongue. Fresh strawberry and ripe raspberry aromas lead to similar lively, fruity flavors that wake up the tastebuds. Brisk acidity and moderate tannins add lift for a balanced, refreshing taste experience.

  Restrained and tannic, this Zin needs time to resolve and mellow its fine layers of blackberry and tar. Complex and structured, from 95-year-old vines, it should do that with aplomb, the wine more savory than sweet, a refreshing alternative to super-sized Zins.

  Zinfandel is not usually a wine you have to age, but this one does need four years or so in the cellar. It's bone dry and quite good, with classic wild berry, tobacco, grilled meat and spice flavors, but it's pretty tannic. Has the depth and balance to blossom by, say, 2015.

  Tastes jammy and sharp, like a barrel sample, with acidic flavors of raspberries, black cherries and spices. The tannins are rich and smooth. A very good wine, but bristly and tough in youth. Give it a few years to mellow.
