"Deep purple ruby. Sour-cherry kefir, oak bark and a slight greenness. Firm tannin and lactic, cherry-driven palate. Reserved profile for Turley. (SCJ)"

"The 2022 Zinfandel Steacey Ranch is a powerful, savory wine. Dried flowers, menthol, gravel, herbs and crushed leaves give the Steacey its distinctive, earthy profile. Dark and quite brooding in feel, the 2022 packs quite the punch."

"From vines planted in 1907, the 2022 Zinfandel Steacy Ranch is medium ruby in color and takes time to reveal a pure, complex nose of crushed berries, candied stone fruit, autumn leaves, dusty earth and subtle meaty, savory tones. The palate is dense and concentrated yet bound with a youthfully firm, dusty frame and fireworks of mouthwatering acidity on the long, gently coiled finish. While fans of a forward, fleshy style will enjoy this on the young side, this should improve beautifully in the cellar over the coming decade."
