Another impressive wine, the 2010 Zinfandel has developed beautifully over the last year. Today, the 2010 is rich, dark and intense. The aromas are still very much primary, so readers who like complexity and nuance will have to let this sit in the cellar for another few years. Still, it is impressive. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. -Antonio Galloni

(15.7% alcohol): Ruby-red. High-pitched berry aromas, with hints of chocolate and licorice. Sweet, lush and creamy, with lovely definition and lift to the red berry flavors. A somewhat cooler style than the 2009, and the better for it. Finishes with sweet, dusty, building tannins. Should make a serious, and seriously rich, bottle of zinfandel.

Dense but rich and fleshy, showing bold black currant, crushed pepper and toasty vanilla aromas, with complex black cherry, mineral and black olive flavors that are wrapped in big but ripe tannins. Drink now through 2022. — T.F.
