Score 92/100 · Drink 2003-2009, Robert Parker, Oct 2003

From a vineyard planted high on Atlas Peak, the saturated ruby/purple-colored 2001 Zinfandel Mead Ranch (16% alcohol) offers up aromas of acacia flowers, blueberries, graphite, and a hint of black currants. Perhaps the finest wine I have ever tasted from Atlas Peak, it is a full-bodied, opulent, gorgeously textured wine with tremendous purity, richness, and fruit. Enjoy it over the next 5-6 years. Tel. (707) 963-0940

Medium ruby. Smoky currant, tobacco and milk chocolate on the nose. Big, lush and sweet, with strong berry notes complicated by a light peppery herbaceousness. Shows the somewhat leafy quality I found in the 2000 from this site. A more polite, rather claret-styled zinfandel.
