The 2021 Zinfandel is another beautiful wine from this team. Red plums, sandalwood, spice, and hints of iron give way to a medium-bodied, balanced, concentrated Zinfandel that has ripe tannins and a layered, balanced, already hard-to-resist style.

From vines planted in 1999 and 2010, Outpost's 2021 Zinfandel delivers classic briary, blackberry notes but also those blueberry nuances that seem somehow connected with Howell Mountain. Hints of dried spices, including a dash of cracked pepper, bring added complexity. This is full-bodied, ripe, rich and nicely textured, with a long, velvety finish.
