Monte Rio Cellars "Royal T" Zinfandel, Lodi, California

The 2021 Zinfandel Old Vines shows plenty of Lodi exuberance. Succulent red/purplish fruit, leather and sweet spice are front and center, with bright acids that perk things up on the mid-palate and finish. This wine is for someone looking for traditional Lodi Zinfandel.
