Score 90/100 · Drink 1996-2006, Robert Parker, Jun 1993

The 1991 Zinfandel-Zeigler Vineyard reveals an earthy, licorice, black truffle-scented nose intertwined with aromas of peppery black-raspberries. The color is nearly opaque. The wine possesses wonderful richness, tremendous extraction of sweet Zinfandel fruit, and a layered, spicy but forbiddingly tannic, blockbuster finish. This dark-purple-colored Zin should be at its best between 1996-2006. The three 1991 Zinfandel offerings are the most reassuringly rich, complex wines I have tasted in years from this historic winery. Made for cellaring, they are enormously endowed, tannic, backward wines with considerable body and concentration. All three promise to be thrilling wines, provided buyers exercise some patience. If you do not mind some tannic bite, they can be enjoyed now. How delighted I am to see such quality re-emerge from Joseph Swan! Tel. (707) 573-3747
