點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：4950

While not as complete, rich, or intense as the Dolinsek, the 2005 Zinfandel Luvisi Ranch Old Vines is very good. It is a well-made effort displaying a classic Zinfandel varietal character (briery fruit, an earthy character, and decent acidity). It should be consumed over the next 2-3 years.Tel.

Powerful and heady, with a deep ruby/purple color, the 2003 Zinfandel Reserve Luvisi Ranch offers up a huge nose of road tar, blackberry liqueur, sweet cherries, and flowers. Unctuously textured, full-bodied, juicy, and fleshy, this is a full-throttle, in-your-face, hedonistic Zinfandel to drink over the next 4-5 years. www.marawines.com

From a 90-100-year old Napa Valley vineyard, the 2002 Zinfandel Reserve Marquise Luvisi Ranch exhibits a dark ruby color as well as a big, sweet nose of raspberry and black cherry fruit, spice, and incense. In the mouth, the wine is medium to full-bodied, round, and generous with subtle oak. It is a pretty Zin to drink now and over the next 3-4 years. www.marawines.com
