Reviews of 2005 Carlisle Winery Zinfandel Carlisle Vineyard Zinfandel
92-94 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
December 2006
The finest wine in this vintage is the stunningly rich 2005 Zinfandel Carlisle Vineyard (86% Zinfandel and 14% mixed varietals such as Alicante Bouchet, Petite Sirah, etc.). The densest, richest cuvee, it shows striking minerality intermixed with blackberries, black raspberries, kirsch, pepper, and spice. There are 272 cases of this pure, full-bodied, intense Zinfandel. It is a candidate for Zinfandel of the year in this tricky vintage. Readers should not hesitate to get on Carlisle’s mailing list before the world discovers what compelling beverages are being produced here. Not yet released.

About the Winery Carlisle Winery
The owner and winemaker of Carlisle Winery and Vineyards tasted his
first late-harvest Riesling at age 19 that he claims was so good that
it changed the course of his life. He read everything he could find on
the subject of wine, became an avid collector, and actually began to
teach his own courses on wine appreciation. He had originally decided
to pursue a career in software development, but after 5 years he was
restless and started to pursue his true passion: wine and winemaking.
He launched the Carlisle label in 1998 and his production reached 1000
cases in 2000. Jay Maddox, a good friend with a degree in viticulture
and enology from UC Davis, joined his team and brought a wealth of
knowledge and ability that helped Carlisle grow to 4000 cases annual
production. Officer and Maddox have turned Carlisle into a
critically-acclaimed label and have received numerous ratings and
awards.
