Tasting Notes
Stunning perfume of violet petals, black cherry preserves, and chocolate box gives way to soft tones of dark plum flesh and sweet earthen char. The texture is effortless, with mountain-grown power and restraint. This wine resolves perfectly, with a multi-layered and persistent finish of ripe black fruits and a lovely, defining freshness. While 12 months of patient aging will reveal additional secondary and tertiary attributes, the juicy fruit can be appreciated now, and throughout the next 7+ years.
Ratings
Jeb Dunnuck 95 "A more brooding personality emerges from the 2021 Zinfandel Matron. With an inky black core, the aromas unfold with sweet tobacco, licorice, and blackcurrants. It’s full-bodied and balanced on the palate, with great freshness to keep this otherwise fleshy red in check, and has a well-tailored, structure, ripe, broad-shouldered tannins, and notes of tea leaf, black raspberry preserve, and fresh soil."

All of our 2021 Rockpile Zinfandels are simply transcendent, and this second vintage of our beautifully detailed Rockpile Zinfandel Matron is no exception. Created to honor the pioneering and persevering women throughout the generations of our family, this wine has incredible depth and sophistication.
