2022 Monte Rio "Marian's - Mohr Fry Ranch" Ancient Vine Lodi Zinfandel (Elsewhere $30) ($17.95) "These ancient, 120-year-old vines produce deeply concentrated fruit that exudes the very essence of old vine Zinfandel.”— Ryan Woodhouse, K&L Domestic Wine Buyer We are thrilled to offer best-in-the-market pricing on a juicy and expressive California Zinfandel. Coming from vines aged 95-125 years, some of the oldest in the country, the 2022 Monte Rio "Marian's - Mohr Fry Ranch" Ancient Vine Lodi Zinfandel is very much a labor of love and a delicious homage to California's storied winemaking history. Aged in neutral barrels to preserve the rusticity of the terroir, this wine, with all of its fruit and spice, offers a perfect pairing for barbecue, lamb, burgers, and grilled vegetables. As Ryan Woodhouse, K&L Domestic Wine Buyer, describes, "It has all the delicious brambly fruit flavors you look for in Zin, but with a little more freshness and lift than most." While Zinfandel may be less of a household variety than, say, Cabernet or Syrah, this crowd-pleasing wine is one we recommend keeping on hand. Surprisingly bright and layered, the 2022 can be enjoyed now or laid down for years to come. With just 300 cases made this vintage, once it’s gone, it’s gone—don't miss this exclusive deal. 
2022 Monte Rio "Marian's - Mohr Fry Ranch" Ancient Vine Lodi Zinfandel (Elsewhere $30) $17.95 95 points Wine Enthusiast: "This wine is bright, lively, with aromas of bramble, strawberry jam, ripe raspberry, dried herbs, and notes of star anise on the nose. The flavors on the palate are plum, cassis, acacia honey, Pink grapefruit, coriander, interlaced with tobacco leaf, earth, and a dry silky finish. Great study in old vine sites." K&L Notes: Monte Rio's "Marian's" Zinfandel is made exclusively from a block of vines at Mohr Fry Ranch planted in 1901. These ancient, 120-year-old vines produce deeply concentrated fruit that exudes the very essence of old vine Zinfandel. Top sommelier-turned-winemaker / proprietor Patrick Cappiello crafts this wine in a bright, juicy, mid-weight style without the overwhelming alcohol and heady ripeness that some Zins can have. It has all the delicious brambly fruit flavors you look for in Zin, but with a little more freshness and lift than most. Yum! - Ryan Woodhouse - K&L Domestic Wine Buyer |
