94 Points Wine Spectator

 A compelling wine that balances a distinct personality with a finely crafted texture and structure. Expressive and brambly black and red fruit pairs with toasty sage and exotic baking spice notes. 

93 Points Robert Parker/Wine Advocate Magazine 

The 2017 Zinfandel Papera Ranch comes from vines planted in 1934. It contains 4% Carignane and was aged in 25% new French oak. It's medium to deep ruby-purple in the glass with aromas of apricot and nectarine, boysenberry, black cherry and raspberry jam, red cherries and fried sage with hints of charcuterie, spices and flowers. The palate is medium-bodied and silky, flooding the mouth with spicy fruits in a chewy frame and lifted by juicy freshness on the long finish. This merits another few years in bottle.
