Opened about 90min before service; enjoyed over the course of several hours. The 2023 Zinfandel CCC pours a ruby color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of fresh, ripe mixed brambles with red and purple flowers, black pepper, dried green herbs and inorganic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and packed with minerals. A different experience than my previous bottle a year ago. This needed all the air it could get…and the wait was worth it. Drink now with patience and through 2043.

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days and fairly consistent throughout. The 2023 Zinfandel CCC pours a deep ruby/purple color with a magenta rim and a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with light staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe and tart black, red and blue fruits: brambles, plum, green herbs, freshly opened beachball, some black pepper and dry earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium. Drink now through 2033.
