2019 Marietta Cellars Zinfandel

WA95 The 2019 Román Zinfandel (blended with 4% Barbera and 2% Petite Sirah) has a medium ruby-purple color and gregarious scents of candied peach, wild berry preserves, orange peel and tar. The palate is deeply fruited but light on its feet with bright freshness and loads of perfume on the long finish.
Estate Notes: We named this wine for Román Cisneros, our cellarmaster of more than 30 years. Currants and red raspberries play the aromatic lead in this wine, while savory spices and sweet fennel flowers provide a delicious and nuanced texture. It is delightfully ripe yet offers a seamless transition into layered complexity with the perfect pop of crunchy acidity.
