Briary, meaty aromas lead to a great mix of fruit and savory flavors in this medium to full-bodied wine. Moderate tannins keep it lively on the palate and subtle French oak accents develop in the glass with time. (Jim Gordon)

VN9090 pts. - Vinous - Apr 2020
The 2018 Zinfandel is racy and exuberant, with tons of varietal character. This stylish, budget-friendly red hits all the right notes. Succulent red fruit, mint, cedar and sweet floral notes flesh out in a delicious, affordable wine that over-delivers — big time.

This is a full, voluptuous red wine filled with concentrated fruits. Blackberry, boysenberry, wild strawberry, black cherry are complemented by spice tones of black pepper, clove, nutmeg and a hint of charred wood. Just enough acid keeps the wine in balance. The finish is filled with smoked-meat umami. (Stacy Briscoe)

Good, direct berry flavors and a medium to full body make this a hearty, fruity wine. Blackberries, black grapes and light baking spices make a pleasant combination. (Jim Gordon)

Tasty, bright raspberry and blackberry flavors are coated with a buttery, oaky layer of cedar and toast that stands apart from the fruitiness. The wine is full-bodied and moderately tannic in texture. (Jim Gordon)

Marietta Old Vine Red

Lot Number 73 / 750 ml.

RP9595 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 14th Jul 2022
The NV OVR Lot 73 is composed mainly of Zinfandel with smaller portions of Syrah, Petite Sirah, Carignan and Barbera. Medium ruby, it offers intense red cherry, blood orange and apricot perfume with accents of rooibos tea leaves, red licorice, saline, lilac and loads of spicy nuances. The medium-bodied palate is light on its feet with soft tannins, bursts of refreshing acidity and detailed amaro accents on the long finish. This is so easy to drink! (Erin Brooks)
JS9191 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Wednesday, October 5, 2022
Lovely aromas of pitted red cherries, black cherries, moss and walnut. Medium-to full-bodied with gentle tannins. Nice intensity with lovely length. Juicy, with so much herbal complexity and black fruit. Predominantly zinfandel, with syrah, petite sirah, grenache, barbera, carignan. Drink now.
SP9090 pts. - Wine Spectator - Jul 31, 2023
Tastes like the gutsy field blends popularized by Italian immigrants back in the day, with potent wild berry, licorice and smoky cracked pepper flavors that finish with broad-shouldered tannins. Zinfandel. Drink now through 2029. 16,000 cases made. (Tim Fish)
