The 2018 Holystone is not your typical Zinfandel. Beginning with spicy white pepper and hints of tulip, the aroma evolves into focused notes of cranberry and ripe fig. Never jammy, Holystone’s well-integrated tannins provide structure to the dark plum and seamless cascade of red berry fruits that splash and entice the palate. An earthy core of nutmeg and graphite add to its complexity, until the tannins soften and intricate shades of the profile gently release, enabling a lingering finish that is steady and expressive.
