Wine Advocate, 96 Points
"The 2021 Zinfandel Vellutini Ranch is loaded with pure red berry fruits—raspberries, strawberries and red cherry candy—plus nuances of orange peel, peach, conifer and wildflowers. The medium-bodied palate is supple and alluring, with layered, juicy fruit that calls you in for another sip. This will age, but I would be inclined to drink it on the earlier side for all its pretty fruit and perfume. 213 cases were made."

"A deeper but still transparent red, the 2021 Zinfandel Vellutini Ranch has a more woodsy spice tone, with aromas of pine, black raspberry, and fresh spices. Full-bodied, it’s ripe with notes of blackberry and candied red fruit, and it has good concentration, with a long finish. It is pure and long, with a supple texture. Drink 2024-2034."
Winemaker Notes:
"Rich aromas of black cherry, sweet leather and boysenberry pie are present in the nose. A well composed entry with flavors of raspberry compote and integrated baking spices are present throughout the palate. Dark flesh plum flavor enhances the graceful, long finish."
Alcohol: 16.4%
