"Strong earthy, meaty, smoked game, and underbrush characteristics are present in the dark plum-colored 2008 Zinfandel Dusi Vineyard. This outstanding Zinfandel reveals a more herbal, spicy personality . . . . All of the following wines are noteworthy, and I am sure they will still be drinking beautifully in 25, 35, perhaps even 40 or more years. They need plenty of time to age, and because they have never been fashionable, their prices tend to be realistic. That said, you have to be a masochist to drink these wines young as they are massive, inky/blue/black, super-concentrated offerings that need at least 8-10 years of bottle age."
