The 2014 Zinfandel Jackass Vineyard (217 cases clocking in at a whopping 16.6% natural alcohol) is absolutely ravishingly rich, extravagantly full-bodied and unctuously textured, with notes of charcuterie, barbeque meats, smoke, herbs, blackberry, cassis and a finish that just oozes over teh palate with no hard edges. This is the quintessential old vine Zinfandel and a remarkable effort. |Robert Parker for Wine Advocate, 97 pointsThe 2014 Zinfandel Jackass Vineyard, from a site planted in the late 1800s, exudes remarkable peidgree to match its explosive, distinctive personality. Dark red and blue fleshed stone fruits, mint, wild flowers and dark spices meld together in an intense, polished Zinfandel that demands attention. The flavor intensity here is just unreal...|Antonio Galloni for Vinous, 93 pointsThe 2014 Jackass Vineyard Zinfandel has rich aromas of black fruit, molasses, and cocoa. With juicy flavors of fleshy black cherry, plum, and sassafras, this wine finishes with a touch of sweet oak spice and vanilla. 217 cases produced. |Martinelli Winery
