Bushnell Vineyard Zinfandel

Bushnell Vineyard Zinfandel

      Zesty aromas of raspberry, baked plum and licorice jump from the glass on the nose of this Zin. The palate displays rich fruit and spice character, and enough plush tannin for mid-term aging.

    • 90 Points | James Suckling

      A super-ripe, heavyweight wine that overflows with blackberry jam and dried cherry flavors on a high-alcohol frame. Notes of sweet oak blend with the opulent fruit as moderate tannins and light acidity add a little counterweight to the uber-rich flavors. Drink now or hold.

    • Wine & Spirits | 92 Points

      A sweet, plummy red, this wine’s dry tannins are just juicy enough to still feel supple, finishing warm, with the flavor of sunbaked stone. It leaves a concentrated impression of dried red-currant fruit that holds on the breath for minutes after each sip.

    • 90 Points | James Suckling

      Densely fruity and mellow zinfandel. Aromas of dark cherries, blackberries, incense and roasted meat. It’s full-bodied with plush tannins. Richly fruity, with plenty of berries and melted chocolate character on the palate and a generous finish. Drink now.

      This zesty version is loaded with pepper flavors, with deep notes of black cherry, licorice and tar that build toward broad-shouldered tannins. Drink now through 2031. Tim Fish
