The 2010 Zinfandel Pagani Ranch is one of the most nuanced and layered of the 2010 Zinfandels here. Dark red cherries, flowers, licorice and spices are woven together beautifully in this layered, silky Zinfandel. The wine's balance is enhanced by the elegant, well-integrated tannins and textured finish. This is a terrific showing. Pagani Ranch was planted in the 1890s. The field blend is 95% Zinfandel and 5% assorted other grapes. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2022. This is a fabulous set of wines from Mike Officer and Carlisle. Best of all, the wines remain very reasonably priced considering the quality and passion that goes into the bottle. Along with Morgan Twain-Peterson of Bedrock, Mike Officer is focused on seeking out the finest old-vine sites in California, which have either been neglected over the years, or are being bought by large-scale wineries who have little interest in discovering the quirks of these very old vineyards, most of which are planted with field blends that truly harken back to another era. The wines are made with indigenous yeasts and aged in French oak barrels, usually in the 20-30% range. I tasted all of the 2010s from barrel the day before they were scheduled to be moved into tank.

2010 年的 Zinfandel Pagani Ranch 是該年份最微妙而富有層次的 Zinfandel 酒。在這款富有層次，如絲綢般柔滑的 Zinfandel 中，深紅色櫻桃、花朵、甘草、香料氣息融合得非常美妙。優雅、圓融的單寧和富有質感的余味提升了該酒的平衡度，不失為一款極妙的好酒。Pagani Ranch 莊園在 19 世紀 90 年代開始種植葡萄，該莊園將 95% 的面積用于種植 Zinfandel， 剩余的 5% 用來種植其他葡萄品種。預期成熟時間：2014 至 2022 年。這款來自 Mike Officer 和 Carlisle 的酒最為美妙和神奇的地方在于該酒雖然質量優良，富有魅力，但價格卻始終保持在合理的水平。這款酒使用野生酵母進行發酵，一般有 20% 至 30% 在法國橡木桶中熟成。
