Wine Enthusiast Summer 2023: Incorporating 100% whole-cluster carbonic fermentation, this Zinfandel—which has just 1.7% of Colombard and 0.3% Muscat in the mix—is not your stereotypical expression. It’s bursting with red fruits: cherry, plum, raspberry—all with a candy-like quality. Fans of the nouveau style should definitely give this a go.-Hidden Gem

Seawolf, Venturi Vineyard Zinfandel 2021 Mendocino
Full bottle 1,401 g. Dry-farmed organic 75-year-old vineyard. Native-yeast fermentation. Aged 11 months sur lie in one-year-old French Redmond barrels. Unfined, unfiltered.
Medium purple in colour. It smells like warm, dried pine needles and blackberries baked on the vine. Brambles and wild violets pressed between pages of parchment. The acid is tart and the tannin is sinewy with some chew. A lovely bite of dried orange rind on the finish. Stunning wine. (SCJ)

Seawolf, First Crush Primitivo 2021 Yorkville Highlands
Full bottle 1,394 g. Estate fruit grown at 2,000 ft elevation in Yorkville Highlands. Organic. Dry-farmed. Native-yeast fermentation of Primitivo co-fermented with Petite Sirah. Aged for 11 months sur lie in 35% new François Frères oak. Unfined, unfiltered.
Medium purple in colour. Vanilla-bean and blackberry-jam nose – blackberries were picked fresh and tart with lots of acid. Tannin is nearing high and is rounded and velvety. High fresh acid. Long finish unrolling with chocolate and liquorice notes. I think this is more a traditional ‘Zinfandel’ with the oak character than the Venturi Vineyards Zinfandel was. I prefer the freshness of the Venturi but this is excellent if you want a bit more oak. (SCJ)
