Score 96/100 · Drink 2022-2032, Jeb Dunnuck, Aug 2022

The nose of the 2020 Zinfandel Saitone Vineyard moves to a darker, more graphite earth tone, black raspberry, and cocoa powder. The palate has a more glycerin feel up front, yet it’s fully dry, with a very attractive soft, stony mouthfeel. Really pleasant and hard to resist now, it can be drunk over the next 10 years.

Score 92/100 · Drink 2022-2028, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2022

The 2020 Zinfandel Saitone Vineyard is laced with dark cherry, plum, spice, new leather, menthol and licorice. Pliant and creamy, but in the mid-weight style of the year, the 2020 is very nicely balanced. Like all the 2020s here, the Saitone is pretty understated, but this site offers a good deal of natural exuberance to partially compensate for the challenges of the growing season.
