A super-balanced, fresh and acid-driven wine that's tangy and full-bodied but not at all heavy or overly tannic. The only zinfandel to be made from the famous cabernet-heavy Stagecoach Vineyard on a mountain overlooking Napa Valley. A unique wine that's brilliant and memorable. Drink now or hold.

The 2023 Zinfandel Stagecoach Vineyard is another highlight in this range. Bright saline notes cut through a core of blue/purplish fruits. Readers will find a brilliant, salivating Zinfandel endowed with tons of mountain character. Far from an easygoing wine, the Stagecoach needs time and, ideally, food at the dinner table. There's a lot of wine here.

Polished yet muscular at the core, with brooding flavors of blackberry and cherry accented by underbrush, savory mint and river stone tones as this builds toward broad-shouldered tannins. Hands off for now. Best from 2026 through 2035. 600 cases made.
