The 1993 Zinfandel Grand Pere Vineyard offers a dark garnet/ruby purple color, decadent, sweet, earthy, cherry scents, a heavyweight, huge, full-bodied impact on the palate, an unctuous texture, and thick, viscous flavors that flow slowly across the palate. It is a dead-ringer for the 1975 Montevina Late Bottled, an Amador Zinfandel that remains remarkably fresh, fruity, and delicious at age twenty. I would opt for drinking the Grand Pere over the next 12-15 years. By the way, the 125-year old Grand Pere Vineyard is reputed to be the oldest vineyard in California. This is an impressive wine!Winemaker Scott Harvey turns out limited production, exceptionally high quality Zinfandels from some of Amador's most renowned vineyards. The Old Vine cuvee comes from a 54-year old plot, which is young when compared to the 83-year old Eschen Vineyard and 125-year old Grand Pere Vineyard.Tel. (209) 245-6979
