94 Points Jeb Dunnuck
A saturated ruby red color, the 2023 Zinfandel Giuseppe & Luisa is savory and has an intriguing nose with notes of cedar, red berries, and baked earth. The acidity is incredible on this wine, which has a salty feel and bright, shining fruit. This is a great value.
 
94 Points Wine Spectator 
Plump and jammy yet well-sculpted, this Zin offers rich and generous flavors of black cherry and raspberry laced with bittersweet mocha, savory pepper and anise notes as this builds polish toward plush tannins. 
 
93 Points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
From vines planted in 1995, the 2023 Zinfandel Giuseppe & Luisa was matured in 40% new French oak. It has open, inviting aromas of cranberry, blueberry, wildflowers, earth and spice. The medium-bodied palate features generous, spicy flavors framed by grainy tannins. It’s balanced by mouthwatering acidity and has a long, flavorful finish.
 
Winemaker Notes
The wine opens with inviting aromas of ripe black cherry and Santa Rosa plum, intertwined with subtle, warming spices that evoke a sense of comfort. A lively, bright entry flows seamlessly into a well-balanced mid-palate, where vibrant cherry tart and succulent plum notes take center stage. The wine's harmonious structure persists across the entire palate, culminating in a mouthwatering finish accented by delicate hints of lingering milk chocolate shavings.
