From the Mendocino region and basically all Zinfandel (there's one percent Schiava Grossa), the 2018 Zinfandel Dupratt Vineyard gives up loads of spice and cedar notes as well as beautiful wild strawberry and blueberry fruits, medium to full-bodied richness, a juicy, elegant texture, and a great finish. It's another stunning 2018 Zinfandel that does everything right, showing the fresher, more elegant, pure style of the vintage to a T.

(90-93 points) The 2018 Zinfandel DuPratt Vineyard, from a parcel on own-rooted vines planted in 1920, is loaded with varietal character. This is an especially delicate expression of the Carlisle DuPratt. Sweet red/purplish berry fruit, wild flowers, mint and spice give the DuPratt a decidedly savory, almost pungent character that is quite distinctive. -- Antonio Galloni
