Williams Selyem Zinfandel Papera Vineyard 2019

This is a truly awe-inspiring red wine balancing a dazzling array of brilliant red fruit flavors (raspberry jam, cherries, pomegranate, and strawberry cream) with a galaxy of exotic spices, figs, vanilla, and hints of oolong tea on the finish. The cashmere like texture is reminiscent of favorite Pinots but the full-throttle fruit is pure Zin pleasure. This ethereal experience is guaranteed to enchant Zinfandel devotees and enhance a wide array of menus. Approaching perfection now and might creep up to a triple digit score with a few more years in the bottle. Enjoy now through 2027. Bravo.
