Louis Martini Monte Rosso Gnarly Vine Zinfandel 2015 (750 ml)

Tasting Notes For Louis Martini Monte Rosso Gnarly Vine Zinfandel 2015

The 2015 vintage was another in a string of warm, dry and early growing seasons with quality rivaling the best we’ve seen in previous years. Mild weather without heat spikes or cool stretches lasted through the spring and summer, allowing slow, even ripening that built excellent ripeness and complexity. A mild, dry harvest gave small berries with intense aromatics, concentrated ripe fruit flavors and outstanding structure and balance.

Blend: 98% Zinfandel, 2% Petite Sirah

Wine Spectator Review - Issue May 31, 2018 - Rated 90:
Zesty and supple, with easygoing plum, orange zest and sweet anise flavors that linger on the finish. Drink now through 2023. 1,250 cases made. — TF

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Review - Issue 29th Mar 2018 - Rated 91:
Medium garnet-purple colored, the 2015 Gnarly Vine Zinfandel Monte Rosso Vineyard is scented of baked berries, raspberry preserves, dried mulberries, spice cake and earth with a waft of tapenade. The mouth is full, rich and spicy with baked berries flavors and firm, chewy tannins, finishing with great length. 1,300 cases were made. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
