Limerick Lane 2021 Zinfandel Marquis   

2021 Limerick Lane Marquis Zinfandel Sonoma County
San Francisco Wine Panel Score 98+ Points
This great Zinfandel opens with a plush, exceptionally complex aromatic mix, with scents of dark cherry, blackberry, black raspberry, peppercorn, licorice root and scalding minerality of seemingly equal intensity line up at center stage. The flavors and long-lingering finish are a grand replica of the nose, and the tension created on the palate keeps the attention riveted, so despite great textural richness and operatic scale this Zin remains dinner wine. Although it already gives real pleasure, it will give more yet in another three years, and will likely be at least as delicious a decade later. A blend of six highly regarded and ancient vineyards, 13 barrels produced.
